Hebbel am Ufer
The Hebbel am Ufer (HAU) is a German theater company and international performance center in Berlin. It has three physical locations (HAU1, HAU2, and HAU3), and a digital theatre (HAU4).
History
[edit | edit source]HAU was founded in 2003, before the 2003/04 season, by combining three theaters[1] in Kreuzberg, Berlin: Hebbel Theater (now called HAU1), Theater am Halleschen Ufer (theater at Hallesches Ufer) (now called HAU2) and Theater am Ufer (now called HAU3).[2][1]
The founding artistic director was Matthias Lilienthal until July 2012, when he was succeeded by the Belgian Annemie Vanackere.[3] As of March 2024[update] Annemie Vanackere is artistic director of HAU.[4]
Locations
[edit | edit source]HAU1 is at the old Hebbel Theater at Stresemannstr. 29; HAU2 is at Hallesches Ufer 34; and HAU3 at Tempelhofer Ufer 10, Berlin.[2]
HAU4 is a digital space, online.[5]
Governance and funding
[edit | edit source]The Hebbel am Ufer is funded with 4 million euros by the State of Berlin and various foundations and organizations in Berlin as well as in the rest of Germany. Its mission is to protect and support the tradition of the Hebbel Theater, which is to provide space and infrastructure for different international and national theater, dance and performance events.[citation needed]
The HAU is known for international productions in various performing arts.[citation needed]
