Since autumn 2022 the Berliner Ensemble has been offering young directors the oppurtunity at a residency through their international WORX program. Each season, two directors are selected by a jury to work as Artists in Residence for a year. During this period the artists are provided with a safe space and given the thematic and implementary freedom to use the Werkraum in order to realise two productions, each. The season is accompanied by complementary events and discourse formats.
The Berliner Ensemble welcomes young theater makers to aplicate for the fourth year of the international residence program WORX. The program addresses artists at the very beginning of their carrier, but with theater experiences. Application is possible from 2th of September till the 18th of October 2024.
This season we are pleased to work with Malin Lamparter and Lucia Wunsch.

Third Year Residents: Malin Lamparter and Lucia Wunsch
Malin Lamparter studied Directing at the "HfMDK" in Frankfurt am Main and already has realized a couple of different productions, not only in classic stage settings. Despite some more performative works, her focus is based on stories and working on texts.
Lucia Wunsch graduated at the "HfMT" Hamburg, in German Literature and Gender Studies, as well as Direction. In Lucias theatre work Lucia often analyses classic texts in the face of surreal elements and the potential of fragmentary storytelling.

Im zweiten Jahr von WORX kuratierten der norwegische Regisseur Heiki Riipinen und der iranische Regisseur Alireza Daryanavard das Programm im Werkraum zwischen Aktivismus und Performance. Die vier Inszenierungen beschäftigten sich mit Machtstrukturen, Queerness und aktivistischen Bewegungen von Iran bis zum deutschen Grundgesetz.

Die ersten beiden Regisseur:innen von WORX waren die litauische Regisseurin Uršulė Barto und die Österreicherin Fritzi Wartenberg. Von einer unabhängigen Jury wurden sie aus über 120 Bewerber:innen ausgewählt. Beide verbindet der klare feministische Blick auf die Strukturen und Mechanismen der Welt – und des Theaters.
