Werkstatt :SPIEL

Showing of the Musical theater workshop

World premiere

Discover the music theater of tomorrow! Young artists develop small pieces for the festival and present themselves and their freshly created works.

Once again, young musical theater talents will present themselves at this year's festival. Werkstatt :SPIEL is an affair of the heart of the Weimar Weekends for Contemporary Music Theater and a music theater workshop in which young composition students from Dresden, Cologne, Frankfurt and Weimar develop music theater sketches, small pieces, tryouts and miniatures together with the young directors and stage and costume designers of the DNT and with instrumentalists and singers from the HfM Weimar, the DNT and the Staatskapelle Weimar and present them to the audience at a show. 

Under the guidance of teachers and mentored by artists of the festival, the young music theater creators form communities of practice in which the sharing of skills, the common process of making, reflecting and learning from each other as well as the transcending of one's own expertise are in the foreground. Based on Werkstatt :SPIEL, teams and networks are to be formed that will continue to work on a future for music theater after the festival. Committed to the rest of the festival program, the workshop's motto is: Pop & Games.
