Scene photo from »Troy! Stowaways in the Trojan Horse«: Spourgitis and Briseis sit back to back. Spourgitis turns his head forward and looks over his shoulder at Briseis, his hands resting in his lap. Briseis looks straight ahead, her profile visible. Her hands are folded on her raised knees. The floor reflects the two of them blurrily, like the surface of water. Scattered around them are blue, stone-like lumps. Behind them is a blue wall.

Scene photo from » It’s like swimming«: Close-up. Timo Jander holds a can of Paulaner Spezi in his hand and looks at it. Parts of his face, his neck and his white T- shirt are splattered with red liquid. In the background are white screens onto which a painted circus tent and caravans are projected.

Scene photo from »20,000 Leagues Under the Sea«: Professor Pierre Aronnax, Ned Land and Captain Nemo are lying on their backs on the floor next and on top of each other. Ned Land has extended her index finger upwards and the glances of the three of them follow it. Aronnax has his backpack next to him. A few light-coloured shells can be seen in the background.

Scene photo from »Sparks«: Twinkle, Malte, Shawn and Isilda are standing close together. They are on a structure consisting of several elements: a flat white platform with a narrow but high wall attached to it. To the right of it is a glittering black tinsel curtain, next to it golden and purple elements. A narrow ring glows inwards around the entire structure. In the background are many glowing dots reminiscent of a starry sky.

Junges Theater Heidelberg

The Junges Theater Heidelberg shows at least four new productions each year intended for an audience of three years and above. Productions take place on their own stage Zwinger 3, while the winter play, a Christmas piece, is shown at Alter Saal and the summer play is an open-air production at the castle, the Heidelberger Schloss. The Junges Theater Heidelberg is an active theatre with low hierarchies that likes to experiment with new forms of theatre and stages challenging stories for young people.
