The first international theatre festival #KITFESTIVAL took place in 2024. The festival takes place in Germany every two years and invites inclusive youth theatres from all over the world to participate. The festival has no genre or language restrictions. The age of the participants is from 16 to 30 years old (deviations from the specified age are allowed).
Performances of every form and genre in every language are invited to participate.
We recommend a duration of maximum 90 minutes for your play.
In the application selection phase, the performances/videos are observed and evaluated by the festival organising committee. At the final, the plays will be perfomed on stage. They will be observed and assessed by members of the festival's expert jury. One winner will be revealed in each program, as well as winners in separate nominations. As part of the festival, performances are discussed with members of the expert jury. Also master classes are held in the main disciplines of theatre. In the evening, a non-theatrical program is planned for the participants with games, competitions and parties. Additionally and on request - excursions, trips to other cities in Germany, visits to museums and cultural areas of the city of Oldenburg/Bremen - can be organised.

Dear participants!
The team of the festival "K.I.T." and #theater11bremen does not support the aggression of the Russian Federation in Ukraine. The jury consists (including) of figures of culture and art of the Russian Federation/Belarus Republic who left the country because of their civic position and/or political repression. We are sure of this and ask you to treat all participants of the festival with respect, regardless of nationality, citizenship or language.
NO WAR!
