T-Werk Potsdam is an international theatre centre located in Schiffbauergasse, renowned for its innovative programming and commitment to artistic exchange. Founded in 1997, T-Werk emerged from the merger of two independent theatre groups and has since become a hub for contemporary performance, theatre education, and cross-cultural collaboration. The venue hosts a wide range of productions including mask theatre, puppet theatre, music theatre, and non-verbal movement theatre, alongside classical drama, concerts, and readings. Its intergenerational approach ensures that children, youth, and adults are all engaged through workshops, festivals, and participatory projects. T-Werk also supports guest artists and independent ensembles by providing rehearsal and performance space, fostering a vibrant community of creators. Signature events like UNIDRAM and Schirrhofnächte attract international attention, celebrating avant-garde theatre and experimental formats. With its flexible stage and intimate setting, T-Werk continues to shape Potsdam’s cultural identity as a space for dialogue, diversity, and theatrical innovation.
