Theater im Bahnhof (A) / ART&SHOCK (KAZ)

The Graz-based Theater im Bahnhof (TiB) is Austria’s largest professional free theatre company. According to its own definition, TiB sees itself as a contemporary popular theatre and has from the outset focused on Austrian identity between tradition and pop. For TiB, the principle of popular theatre demands an all-out subjective approach. Self-developed plays have been the theatre’s main identity from the beginning. It is constantly changing its methods of work so as to create living, varied theatre.
