University Players Hamburg

In the artist's words:

The University Players (UP) are the English-language theater group at Universität Hamburg and form a central component of student culture on campus and far beyond. Traditionally, the UP produce one English-language play per semester with the participation of mainly German and international students: contemporary drama, Shakespearean classics, musicals or improv theater - we produce what we like. Activities have expanded significantly since 2023: There are additional projects and a distinct UP Improv section with regular performances of the long-running hit AS YOU WANT IT in the Motte and a continuous, open workshop program, the highlights of which are the bi-annual student shows.
