Theater Thikwa

Theater Thikwa is “Germany’s most famous theater in which artists with and without disabilities perform together” (rbb Kulturradio). In its own venue in Berlin and in guest performances all over the world, Thikwa presents performances, dance, text and music theater without shying away from experimentation.

The basis of the “stage miracle” (Der Tagesspiegel) is the Thikwa Workshop for Theater and Art. This is where the 42 members of the ensemble have their workplace. The ensemble works in particular with the personal idiosyncrasies of its performers and seeks new forms of expression beyond fixed genre boundaries. It continuously cooperates with external artists from the independent scene.

In 2018, Thikwa was awarded the prestigious Martin Linzer Theater Prize and in 2019 the Theaterpreis des Bundes, one of the most important theater prizes in Germany.
