What World? A text and theatre project

29% staging 13% next generation 29% literature 29% collaboration

Literature and authors play a special role in the history of steirischer herbst. In years past, the festival has frequently asked what role texts and what role authors can play in contemporary theatre productions – beyond the conventional functions of drama and dramatists.
“What World?” invites three young authors with close links to Graz to reflect on their own models of co-operation in very different working constellations.
