From young and old for young and old - Performing theatre together

In the Nueremberg theatre project of United Generations Seniors over 55 and youngsters of 8 – 13 years design and build a mobile puppet theatre. They build the puppets and go on tour with self written stories or with known fairy tales.

The target is, to encourage the understanding and the strong company between the young and the old generation by doing creative jobs together. The project offers the chance to

some space for your ideas. Offered is as well professional guidance. Performances are planned in kindergartens, in hospitals for children, in old pensioners homes, on public events or in private circles, for instance kiddies birthday parties and family parties.

We are looking for handycraft seniors and young people, who like to tell tales and who want to volunteer their time.

As first project the group will play "The Snowqueen" written by Hans Christian Andersen
