Presentation of the participatory and inclusive music theater project for everyone aged 13–18 (2026)
TEENIE TIMES is a state of being. TEENIE TIMES is about re-learning for a new era.
In an artistic and experimental setting designed to foster self-empowerment, expression and exchange – somewhere between a racing heart and a loss of control – twenty Berlin teenagers and a teen band explore the theme of transformation. Transformation on a small and large scale, in minds, bodies, rooms and (in a frighteningly delightful dimension) the world.
Artistic Leadership: Pauline Jacob und Lisa Florentine Schmalz / staatsoper24 sowie Anne Pretzsch
Composition: Dariya Maminova
Set design and costumes: Marie Gimpel, Janina Capelle
Band workshops: Lukas Macher
Band management: Octavia Gloggengießer, Karin Perk
Dramaturgy: Fanny Frohnmeyer, Sebastian Hanusa, Anne Keil
In collaboration with the teeny Musik treff, the August Hermann Francke School, and the Leopold Ullstein School / OSZ Wirtschaft. Funded by "Zur Bühne", the support programme of the German Stage Association within the framework of "Kultur macht stark. Alliances for Education". With generous support of Förderkreis der Deutschen Oper Berlin e. V.
