With their production of “Electra” by Hugo von Hofmannsthal, our full-time acting students presented their final project under the direction of Winfried Goos.

Through a special collaboration between acting, dance and singing, a multifaceted production emerged, bringing together language, music and movement. Integrated songs and choreographies enriched the dramatic action and gave the play a distinctive expressive quality.

The participants had the opportunity to demonstrate their acting skills and, together with the dance and singing departments, create a rich and dynamic theatrical experience. “Electra” marked the successful conclusion of an intensive and creative year at Schauspielfabrik.

In June, Birgit von Bally is shooting the feature film VERDAMMT FREI under the direction of Katrin Lindner. Production: Mela Filmproduktions. We wish them a great shoot!
