Radically young
Radically young - the festival of young directors has been held annually at the Munich Volkstheater since 2005 . It has set itself the task of offering young directors a forum and a stage.
A jury selects productions by young directors from the German-speaking theater landscape. At the end of the festival week, an audience award of 3,000 euros since 2020 (previously 2,500 euros) will be awarded. A supporting program will take place parallel to the productions. In addition to the audience discussions with the respective directors and a member of the jury, the future of theater and new ways of funding will be discussed.
