History and Mission
English Theatre Leipzig was founded in 2013 at Neues Schauspiel Leipzig. Bringing together a group of both amateur and professional actors and directors, it became an official non-profit association (e.V.) in 2016 and has since offered a platform for cultural and artistic exchange to the English speaking and learning community, involving international theatre enthusiasts from the most diverse backgrounds. Establishing connections between performers and audiences, language learners and natives, stage and communities is what we strongly believe in and passionately work towards.
We are dedicated to creating quality English-language theatre and we produce and present up to three productions each year, ranging from classical scripted theatre to devised, interdisciplinary performance pieces. We also run The Playhouse, our regular workshop series covering acting skills, improv theatre, script writing, and Shakespeare. We are strongly community-focused and welcome everyone to join a workshop, audition or watch a show!
