In the organizer's words:

With Inke Arns, Claudia Bosse, deufert&plischke, Anan Fries, Monika Gintersdorfer, Gob Squad, Heiner Goebbels, Hofmann&Lindholm, Heinrich Horwitz, Alexander Karschnia (andcompany&Co.), Hans-Werner Kroesinger, Şeyda Kurt, Luise Meier, Sibylle Peters (FUNDUS THEATER | Forschungstheater), Aenne Quiñones, Sahar Rahimi, Mithu Sanyal, Stephan Stock (Theater Hora), Daniel Wetzel (Rimini Protokoll) and many more.

Hans-Thies Lehmann's "Postdramatic Theater" was published in 1999 - a title that was perhaps even more powerful than the book itself: It gave the new worldwide trends in the performative arts the name under which they have been gathering ever since. 25 years later, influential theater makers from the German-speaking world are coming together for a discursive birthday celebration: Where does post-dramatic theater stand today? How does it react to current social trends? And what comes next?
