People are making theatre.
They do this for certain reasons, for themselves and for the others.
People are making theatre.
They find their special ways to do this, depending on their personal
places, stories, biographies, experiences, wishes and desires.
People are making theatre.
They do this in different ways. That means a variety of aspects and
forms, a variety of reasons. The “Göppinger Theatertage” is a festival for
different forms of theatre. And that makes our festivals so fascinating.
We meet in Göppigen to experience the interaction between script,
artistic direction, stage production and the audience. How does your play work,
how does it differ from others and what message does it bring across? The
“Göppinger Theatertage” is a kind of theatre conference that covers these
issues.
Ten to twelve groups will be our guests from November 22 to 26 this year
(2017), presenting their latest productions. We watch all the performances and
talk about our observations, feelings and experiences evoked by your plays.
That’s why it’s so important to be present for the whole duration of the
theatre festival.
We would like to invite you to apply for the “47th Göppinger
Theatertage“! You can do so by sending information about your group and a
detailed documentation of a current production. Or, if you are currently
working on a production that will be performed after the closing date for
applications, you can send us your company’s first reflections and concept of
the unfinished play. If you are applying for the first time, please enter
information of earlier productions as well.
Guests that wish to join the festival as observers are always welcome.
The joy of live theatre - on and off the stage - and the different forms
of theater art happening right in front of us make our festival so special and
magical. We look forward to spending four days in Göppingen filled with
concentrated passion for theatre! Passion for your own individual theatre and
passion for other people’s theatre contributions.
Theatre is, what we make of it.
With kind regards
