    Dr. Manfred Jahnke worked as a dramaturg and director in Ulm, Pforzheim and Bruchsal, before moving to the Cultural Office of the town of Offenbach. He then switched to independent journalism, focussing on the work of theatre for children and young people. Now teaching is his main activity: in Munich, Stuttgart and Ulm. He is a winner of the ASSITEJ prize.

    “What does theatre for young people have to look like? The shows should provide new impulses, not only formally but also in a social context. How can social realities be reflected in a poetic manner? Or are we increasingly visiting a theatre of everyday experts?” (Dr. Manfred Jahnke)
