The Project
FairChange Thikwa
Theater Thikwa faces the urgent task of creating long-term perspectives for its artists with disabilities – beyond systemic limitations. Current conditions, such as the workshop model or unclear funding prospects, make fair pay, participation, and individual development difficult. At the heart of the project lies the question: How can artistic work and fair compensation for disabled artists be shaped in a needs-based and sustainable way? Building on an initial assessment, two pilot projects will be developed – one aimed at advancing the workshop model with greater flexibility and access to the regular labor market, the other focused on testing an alternative cooperation model with new partners. The goal is to find new ways for talents from inclusive contexts to contribute effectively to municipal and state theaters, the independent arts scene, and educational work – supported by structures that are open and permeable.
