DT ATT Author's theater at Deutsches Theater
Writing and the theatre stage have always had a close and exciting relationship. Author-focused theater means questioning this force field and seeing it as a creative engine:
How do we need to think about theater so that it can be a good partner for authors? How does the interplay between author and theater give rise to the great stage moments of the present?
The authors' program at Deutsches Theater Berlin is divided into several areas: Throughout the year, we promote the creation of new theater texts in the ATT Ateliers and open up spaces for discussion for contemporary authors in German-speaking countries and worldwide. In the summer, DT ATT presents the most exciting voices of new drama at the Festival ATT. We bridge the dark seasons, i.e., the weeks leading up to the festival magic, with podcast episodes from our network of authors: about life, action, and storytelling in the climate crisis.
