Ein Stück Liebe
10+
Head of Group: Marcel Leemann
Summary:
As part of the youth club, young people develop a dance piece over the course of a year that explores the complex and multifaceted theme of love. In intensive rehearsals lasting several months, they develop choreographies that express both their own experiences and universal aspects of love. In doing so, they embark on a creative journey that goes far beyond mere dance movements.
The theme of love is explored in all its facets: from the first adolescent crush that begins with butterflies in the stomach to the insecurity and doubt that accompany unfulfilled expectations and the fear of rejection. The young people explore the euphoria that arises when feelings are reciprocated, but also the pain when relationships fail or feelings are not shared.
With: Greta, Angelina, Anna-Lena, David, Carice, Svea, Linda, Leonora, Olivia, Katharina

Break the cycle
Age 12+
Head of Group: Martyna Czerw
Summary:
Break the cycle
Mother and Father — both important, fascinating figures — play vital roles in our life. Parents. Relationships. The past.
The lack of understanding, of communication.
All will be revealed in this play.
The sun shines bright above the sea. But when the storm comes, it hides behind the moon’s flickering lights. How will the sailor reach the shore in such a light?
Will he fall into the ocean? Will he sink into the abyss - that place of despair, confusion, and anger?
A cold place. Cold like her heart.
Like my mother. Like the house without her
Or... will he ignite the fire?
Break the cycle?

War - Imagine it is here
by Janne Teller
Age 12+
Head of Group: Nicola Fritsch
Summary:
Imagine there's a war—not somewhere far away, but here in Europe. Democratic politics has failed, and fascist dictatorships have seized power. Those who can are fleeing to the Middle East, like the 14-year-old protagonist from Germany. He and his family are trying to start a new life in an Egyptian refugee camp. Because he doesn't have a residence permit, he can't go to school, learn Arabic, or find a job. He feels like an outsider and longs for home. But where is home?
With her text, bestselling author Janne Teller dares to undertake a stirring thought experiment, which the theatre group tACTlos transforms into a moving and moving theatre experience.

Meet me Halfway
by Emmanuelle Vinh
10+
Head of Group: Emmanuelle Vinh
Summary:
The performance "Meet me halfway!" is an invitation to meet the young performers between childhood and adulthood. They provide insights into their thoughts and feelings, demand to be heard, and focus on topics such as social isolation and belonging. They articulate their anger, their insecurity, and their search for identity – all of which words often fail to express, are made tangible here.
The piece was created through a participatory process in which the young people themselves contributed their own themes and helped shape the creative process. This allows the tension between independence and security to be experienced authentically.
"Meet me halfway!" ties in with the motto #reACT:
Theater creates spaces for encounters, invites bridges to be built, and opens up new ways to connect with one another.

Das Heldenprojekt
based on the Novel by Christian Linker
Age 10+
Head of Group: Laura Hammerle
Summary:
A group of young people - they call it "the project" - meets regularly to write poems about things they really care about:
Like freedom of expression, sexism, love, ...
This poems will be read and after that destroyed. Because "Art only exists for the moment".
Suddenly something changes as two new young people join the group. "If you want to make a difference, you have to DO something! If you care about the world, the world needs to know!"
One night, the young people start to do something to let the world know:
They cover election posters for a right-wing radical party with their poems.
What is initially exciting becomes increasingly dangerous, putting the group more and more in the sights of right-wing activists and in danger.
In this version of "junges theater innsbruck" , the novel is adapted to include references to current political headlines and the increasing success of radical parties.
