The Festival
From 3 to 10 November 2010 the Kulturamt der Stadt Münster and the Staedtische Buehnen, along with the NRW KULTURsekretariat, will present the first HALBSTARK festival. With its exciting and spectacular productions this new theatre festival is aimed at children and teenagers between the ages of 9 and 13. Under the artistic direction of Dutch director Silvia Andringa, it will present productions from Germany, Holland, Belgium and Denmark.
Theatre Festival assumes Perspective of 'Halbstarke'
Be it play, dance- or musical theatre, the eleven national and international productions selected reflect the themes and dreams of their audience.

Mentoring Classes
HALBSTARK is seeking to involve theatre professionals and audiences in an intensive dialogue. Since September 2010 children from 11 mentoring classes have been involved in a special exchange with the festival ensembles.

The people can no longer look forward to the promise of freedom, because with each of Moses' failures in front of the pharaoh, they are risking increasingly severe punishments…
