Radically reduced – but heated, loud and expressive: the new appearance for the Staatstheater Hannover is less statesmanlike than theatrical in the best sense of the word. We stage the four-genre establishment (theatre, opera, ballet, concert) as a disruptive factor, as a source of inspiration. The aim was to find a unified identity, to strengthen the sense of community within the establishment and to keep the genres as independent as possible. In order to not just formulate a manifest claim of impact but also to communicate this to the outside world.
