About us

Since 1997, FUNDUS THEATER has been Hamburg’s premiere venue for selected mobile children’s theater. It is home to the Hamburg Children’s Theater Festival and is dedicated to supporting emerging artists in the fields of performative research and participatory theater for young audiences.

The Project

Competence Center for Child Participation and Intergenerational Dialogue

What is needed to ensure that children are not only addressed in theater, but genuinely involved? FUNDUS THEATER takes this question seriously – and, drawing on its many years of experience, plans to develop a competence center for child participation and intergenerational dialogue. Together with both local and national partners, they are embarking on an open process: How can structures be created that embed children’s perspectives not only in individual projects, but on a lasting basis? In collaboration with universities, the German Child Protection Association, the City of Hamburg, FELD Theater, and not least its own children’s advisory board, FUNDUS THEATER aims to develop a model for real participation – positioning itself as a learning, researching institution carried equally by children and adults.
