In the artist's words:

glanz&krawall are a Berlin (music) theater group led by director Marielle Sterra and dramaturge Dennis Depta. In their interdisciplinary musical theater, they have been blithely seeking confrontation with the rest of society since 2014 - from the high culture of opera to the poetic forlornness of a solo entertainer in the village disco. To this end, Sterra and Depta bring formats such as wrestling, circus, punk concerts or trotting races into theater spaces and bring their theater into the urban space, e.g. into clubs, lidos or psychiatric wards. glanz&krawall work across generations with professionals and amateurs. Their play texts are created during the rehearsal process together with the performers. Since 2019, they have been initiating the inclusive theater and music festival series BERLIN is not... In 2022, glanz&krawall founded the DEUTSCHE BIERTRINKERINNEN UNION party at the Volkstheater Rostock. In December 2024, their bureaucracy musical with Theater Thikwa - DIE TÜTEN AUS DER VERWALTUNG - celebrated its premiere.
