Maulheld*innen 2026

Maulheld*innen, Nort Rhine-Westphalia’s School Theatre Meeting, celebrates its 20th anniversary in Düsseldorf in 2026! FFT, Goethe Gymnasium and Junges Schauspiel invite you to five summery festival days full of encounters, exchange, and theatre. The selected and invited school theatre groups will not only focus on the presentation of their own pieces but also on creating theatre together: Many diverse artist workshops, a creative accompanying programme and a great closing party complete the festival.

Interested school theatre groups from all forms and school types may apply until March 27, 2026. Previous stage experience is not required!
