Free Theater Hanover. Theater / Art / Culture / Community
Behind its graffiti-sprayed façade on the alternative Glocksee site, the traditional THEATER AN DER GLOCKSEE is currently the base of an interdisciplinary team led by all-round artists Lena Kußmann and Jonas Vietzke.
Long known as an "insider tip on the Ihme", the group makes constant reinvention its principle, constantly forging new connections and, as an artistically reactive research laboratory, breaking the boundaries of its fixed venue.
Its themes and forms of work remain in flux and include crossovers between science and culture, contemporary dance and drama, political discourse formats, the testing of multi-part long-term projects and research into the digital plus for theater.
Depending on the production, a diverse audience comes together in the mutable stage space with up to 90 seats and a cozy foyer, where there is always room for direct encounters between artists and audience.
The THEATER AN DER GLOCKSEE team has received awards for its work, including the German Federal Theater Prize, the "pro visio" cultural prize from the Kulturregion Foundation and first place at the BestOFF Festival of the Lower Saxony Foundation.
