The ThAEtermaschine rolls in and fires up an artistic debate about the future of theater. Visionary, participatory and offering multiple perspectives. Die ThAEtermaschine is a mobile artistic symposium. Various theater professionals will take a stand and using different presentation formats they will pose the question: how could and should the future of theater look like - artistically, socially, institutionally, financially? What do the people want? ThAEterporno or ThAEcracy?A ThAEtrophone that’s all ears for your visions? As of September the ThAEtrophone will be ringing in the foyer of the Sophiensaele to collect your ideas regarding the future of theater. Suggestions made in this interactive installation will then flow into the artistic symposium in November.
