Stellwerk - young theater Weimar
The Stellwerk - Junge Theater Weimar ( spelling : Stellwerk - Junges Theater Weimar ) is a free theater by and for young people in Thuringia .
description
The main focus of the Stellwerk's work since 1999 has been on cultural education in a contemporary, theater-pedagogical context. Under professional guidance, children, young people and students will find scenic, dance and performative offers that enable them to have aesthetic, social and life-world-oriented learning experiences. The purpose of the theater is to bring young people onto the stage and thereby give them low-threshold access to participation and active participation. The young theater wants to empower young people to actively incorporate their attitudes, questions, expertise and wishes into the program content. The offers are age-specific and structured in a course, workshop and staging system. The game plan is made up of the productions created in this workshop system. The association has been operating a venue in Weimar Central Station for a predominantly young audience since 2002
