    The Max Reinhardt Seminar enables a new generation of actors and directors to test their vision for theatre as an ensemble art and to develop and unfold it with narrative clarity and passion, imagination and social awareness.

    The degree programmes in acting and theatre directing are linked in an incomparable way. The close collaboration throughout the entire course of study fosters a deep understanding and strong cooperation between the disciplines.

    The central aim of training at the Max Reinhardt Seminar is the development of an individual artistic stance and the exploration of a broad spectrum of theatrical approaches. The programme combines the intensive training of physical, vocal, theoretical and personal skills with comprehensive performance and directing practice as part of classes, as well as in scenic exercises and theatre productions.

    The Max Reinhardt Seminar encourages students, teaching staff and employees to actively help shape the future of the performing arts. Together, we are committed to creative, diverse and inclusive theatre practice that engages with the world.

    „Whenever you feel that routine is creeping in, you should do something new.“
