Flinn Works (led by Sophia Stepf and Lisa Stepf) engages with issues of globalization, focusing on postcolonial and feminist questions. The performances and installations are based on extensive research and draw on the personal perspectives of international participants to create a multi-perspective dramaturgy. At the intersection of ethnology and documentary formats, the productions evolve their form as a consequence of the content and the talents of the team involved. Flinn Works has received three META Awards in New Delhi, the Förderpreis of the Zürcher Kantonalbank, the Tabori Award of the Fonds Darstellende Künste, and the award of the International Theatre Institute Germany. The projects are presented in Germany, Switzerland, India, and Tanzania.
