When seniors make theater - Interview with Edith Knetsch, director of the senior theater WageMut (Leipzig)

Since it was founded in 2013, the mobile senior citizens' theater Wagemut has been developing its own plays - with humor, joie de vivre and empathy. The eight members have also brought their productions to various stages, including three summer stage performances in the Budde-Haus art garden.
Edith Knetsch, actress and board member of the theater association, invites you to a cozy conversation in the Budde-Haus. She will talk about her experiences and provide exciting insights into the world of senior citizens' theater: What makes theater special for senior citizens? How do you get to be on stage yourself? Is there a minimum or maximum age? And does stage fright really diminish with age? Ms. Knetsch will answer these and many other questions - over a good cup of coffee or tea.
