Postgraduate project at the Junges Schauspielhaus Hamburg in cooperation with the Theaterakademie der Hochschule für Music and Drama Hamburg

A new postgraduate project, which will take place for the first time in 2022, will give directing graduates from the Hamburg University of Music and Drama the opportunity to work on a professional production at the Junges Schauspielhaus. The aim is to pursue an exploratory approach in order to develop and test innovative forms of theater for a young audience. The production can be aimed at children or young people of all ages.

This is the first cooperation between these two institutions, which will be neighbors in the new theater center on Wiesendamm from spring 2021 and want to use the spatial proximity for joint projects. In addition to the ensemble and the dramaturgy of the theater, other students and graduates of the University of Music and Drama can also participate, such as actors, composers and musicians.
A two-member selection committee, consisting of one representative each from the Junges Schauspielhaus and the Hochschule für Music and Drama, will decide by 15.06.21 who will lead the postgraduate project and hold the director's position. The premiere is planned for 14.05.2022.

The postgraduate project is a new format at the Junges Schauspielhaus Hamburg in cooperation with the Theaterakademie der Hochschule für Music and Drama and is funded by the Claussen-Simon-Stiftung.
