General Information
The theaterwerkstatt hannover is one of the oldest independent theater groups in Germany. Since its founding in 1976, numerous theater productions have emerged, about half of them for children and young people. The theaterwerkstatt is leaded by a team of three. For each production the ensemble is temporarily extended by professional artists from different genres. In this way, the theater produces up to four productions a year, which are shown in Hanover and on tour. Quite a few of them find their reputation at festivals at home and abroad. The performances are shown in their own theater, in the culture centre ‘Kulturzentrum Pavillon’ (2 flexible stages / black box, with 90 and 110 seats in a atrium style). The theater is funded primarily by the city of Hanover, project-related by the state of the Lower Saxony and from various foundations. The budget varies between 150,000-200,000 € p.a.
Mission and Objectives

The theaterwerkstatt hannover offers with their aesthetically and highbrow productions lively theater experiences for children, adolescents and adults. In all productions the sensual experience of the content stands in the foreground, through the combination of language, movement, space, light and music.
The substantive decisions for each project are guided by the questions ‘What is our business, what motivates and excites us?’ The task that we face as a theater, is the compression of these questions in an open artistic process. The more freely this process can happen, the more clearer the theater can show new things, can connect the rational contemplation of our world with emotional knowledge and allow collaborative experience and viewing in the theater. A envision and understanding with all the senses, without getting stuck in the pure image - there are enough copies.
The role of the ensemble is crucial, it designs as a creative collective the content for the audience. In this theatre the actor is the creative performer. The spectator is active and alternates between seeing through the open process and fiction. In this ratio lays a profoundly democratic attitude that we want to maintain as a theater.

Main Projects / Activities

In addition to our own operation in Hanover, the theatre is internationally connected for years, with co-productions in Japan and Poland and many guest performances in Europe and Asia. From 2005 to 2009 the theaterwerkstatt hannover conceived and managed the european theater project "Babel, or we build a house" for the Goethe-Institut Nancy, Vilnius and Lisbon.
Since 2012, the theaterwerkstatt hannover expanded their international activities in the Arab region, -in the Middle East and North Africa. According to its own touring they organized jointly with the Cultural Center ‘Pavillon’ the  theater-meeting about the Arab Spring, in 2014 with the main focus on new era of the women "Aufbruch der Frauen".

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

Since 2014, the theaterwerkstatt continuously collaborates with the Cultural Center ‘Pavillon’ and we offer under the label of "Theater in the Pavilion" an exciting place for independent theater. Together with the Cultural Centre, the theater offers ideal opportunities for performances, conferences and workshops.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

The theaterwerkstatt is preparing a cooperation with Israel / Palestine and in the following with Egypt. Besides our own theater work, we are looking forward to taking a deeper cultural policy discourse in the network.

Uprooted – (Hi)Stories of Stolen Children during World War II

Submitted by Germany on جمعة, 22/07/2022 - 09:55
Kreisau-Initiative

A research and education project from the member organisation Kreisau-Initiative e.V.

The project deals with the history of children abducted from Poland, the Czech Republic, Ukraine and other countries to Germany during world war II and forcibly germanised there. Their fate is still almost unknown today and many still do not know their roots.

By showing the history of these forcibly abducted and uprooted children, we would like to encourage a confrontation with the racist and inhuman ideology of the National Socialists. Furthermore, we would like to advocate for raising awareness of the importance of children's rights.

In October 2022, a learning platform for teachers and educators who want to cover this subject in class or in other settings with youngsters will be launched. There will be diverse learning materials available – from activity plans to a timeline to videos and podcasts.

The basis for creating these learning materials was academic essays written by experts coming from all four countries involved. The articles are available here: https://www.kreisau.de/en/new/historische-essays-zum-thema-geraubte-kinder/

"Uprooted – (Hi)Stories of Stolen Children during World War II" is led by the Kreisau-Initiative (Germany) and conducted in 2022 in cooperation with the organisations Kreisau Foundation for Mutual Understanding (Poland), Post Bellum (Czech Republic) and Tolerspace (Ukraine). The project is funded by the Foundation Remembrance, Responsibility and Future (EVZ) and the Federal Ministry of Finance (BMF).
