On 22 January, the Theatertreffen’s jury of critics announced their selection of the 10 most remarkable productions for the 2025 Theatertreffen at a press conference. Our congratulations go to the nominated production teams and all participants!
Every year, a jury of critics selects the 10 most remarkable productions from up to 600 productions from the German-language region to be presented in Berlin in May.
The Open Call of the Theatertreffen-Blog is aimed at aspiring arts journalists with a strong interest in the theatre who would like to critically reflect the 2025 Theatertreffen. Coverage will both include the usual text form and be open to audio and social media formats. A pronounced interest in arts journalism and the festival’s programme is more important than an academic background or experience in journalism.
The 10 most remarkable productions and the additional festival programme are to be explored from various perspectives and issues of cultural politics will be reflected. Networking with industry experts, with the Theatertreffen-jury as well as with fellows of the International Forum and participants of the Open Campus-format is another essential component of the programme.
Deadline for applications: 10 February 2025 (23:59, CET)
