The ASSITEJ Prize – in 2015 for the 13^th time – and also since 2003 the ASSITEJ Promoter’s Prize have traditionally been awarded during the Augenblick mal! Festival. The ASSITEJ Prize honours national and international personalities for their lengthy commitment and innovatory powers in theatre for young audiences. It pays tribute to achievements in the area of art, cultural politics, education and journalism.

The ASSITEJ Promoter’s Prize honours people for their services to the “art of promotion”, for their hospitality, professionalism and artistic competence which lead to successful touring shows in the area of theatre for children and young people.

The evening will be devoted to the prize-winners. We wish to get to know the personalities we shall be honouring, and celebrate with them. All Festival visitors, all previous prize-winners and anyone interested in culture and politics, the media and education are warmly invited to be present.

Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Schneider (Chair of ASSITEJ Germany and Honorary President of ASSITEJ) and Brigitte Dethier (Deputy Chair of ASSITEJ Germany) will be taking us through the evening. The musical accompaniment will be provided by the HAC Quartet from Hildesheim. At the end of the evening the Board of Directors of ASSITEJ Germany and the Executive Committee of ASSITEJ International warmly invite everyone to drinks in the Festival café.
