In the artist's words:

Ensemble Integral is an independent intercultural theater group from Cologne, founded in 2001 (as Theater 61). Numerous projects in different languages, years of searching, experimenting, many encounters with international classical and modern dramaturgy, self-developed projects and collaborations with artists from several countries characterize the ensemble. Based on our experience and in line with our concept, we have been working under the name "Ensemble Integral" since 2017.
