About us
The THEATER FEDERATIOUN is the Luxembourgish federation of professional theatres. It unites all the professional theatres, ensembles and some cultural centres of Luxembourg. From the one-man show via the luxembourgish centre of choreography to the country's largest venue – its 21 members reflect the diversity of the Luxembourgish theatre landscape.
Since its foundation in 1996, the THEATER FEDERATIOUN defends the interests of the theatre professionals and considers as its main mission the promotion of theatre and dance in Luxembourg and abroad.
Our activities:
Promotion of the programs
The monthly theatre journal “THEATERZEITUNG” presents the current program of all the theatres.
Sensibilize the public
The THEATER FEDERATIOUN regularly invites to the “TheaterFest” (theatre festival), a day in honor of the Luxembourgish theatre and dance and its audience, a festival where both sides of the curtain meet.
Promotion of careers and training in the field of theatre
The THEATER FEDERATIOUN is a regular participant of the students' fair of Luxembourg, where prospective students can get an insight into the world of theatre by collecting informative literature, watching short films an getting into contact with theatre and dance professionals.
Promotion of the Luxembourgish theatre abroad
Every year the THEATER FEDERATIOUN supports one stage play at the Festival Off in Avignon and participates in the “Fringe Festival”, the festival for interdisciplinary productions at the Ruhrfestspiele Recklinghausen. These activities serve to arouse international interest in the luxembourgish performing arts sector and to support national artists in their setting up of international networks.
With the same intention, the THEATER FEDERATIOUN also attends the Internationale Tanzmesse NRW.
TheatreArchives
Currently, the THEATER FEDERATIOUN pursues one big projet, which is the creation of the Luxembourgish theatre archives. The theatre patrimony created over the decades is being registered in both digital and material form and shall be open to the public.
