Junge Triennale

The Junge Triennale gives children and young people the opportunity to experience art and culture and to make their own. It offers young people – accompanying the Ruhrtriennale programme – artistic projects and workshops for schools linked to productions.

With TEENS IN THE HOUSE III – A Young Residency, the Ruhrtriennale's youth group is moving into the festival again this year. Creative workshops will be held monthly in the run-up to the festival. New members aged 16 and over are very welcome!

On stage, primary school pupils and families will experience the poetry of nature through the eyes of mountains in a colourful pop-up landscape in Im Garten der Potiniers / Au jardin des Potiniers. Young people from the age of 14 and adults encounter young people from other continents and their stories in no less than two productions: The Chilean theatre production La posibilidad de la ternura / The Possibility of Tenderness invites us to look at images of masculinity and their effects. In The Visitors, the everyday experiences of violence of young dancers from Johannesburg, South Africa, are imaginatively combined with the youthful fascination with horror films.
