Theatertreffen der Jugend 2026
ANNE, Piccolo Theater Jugendklub, Piccolo Theater Cottbus – Auf dem Bühnenbild sind sechs Personen abgebildet. Sie tragen alle graue, weiße und schwarze Kleidung und sind über die Bühne verteilt. Sowohl ihre Körperhaltung als auch ihr Blick sind nach rechts gerichtet. Vier von ihnen halten Koffer in der Hand, und zwei der Personen mit Koffern scheinen ebenfalls in diese Richtung zu rennen. Zwei Personen ohne Koffer stehen auf Erhöhungen. Im Hintergrund stehen drei Holzwände.

A production by the Piccolo youth theatre club, based on the diary of Anne Frank.
Anne Frank was murdered by the Nazis in 1945 in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Before that, she had gone into hiding with her family in Amsterdam and recorded her thoughts in her famous diary. The youth theatre group engaged deeply with her life. How can rituals of remembrance be broken open in order to arrive at a form of remembrance that actively engages with the present?
Eighty-one years ago, on 8 May 1945, the End of World War II in Europe brought to a close the war unleashed by Nazi Germany. In six years, it had claimed around 60 million lives worldwide. One of them was the life of the fifteen-year-old Anne Frank. In February 1945, she was murdered in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Only two months later, British troops reached the camp and liberated the remaining survivors. The Nazis had all but annihilated the Jewish population of Europe.
The Jewish girl Anne Frank went into hiding with her family during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands, in the rear annex at Prinsengracht 263 in Amsterdam. After two years, they were betrayed and discovered. While in hiding, Anne wrote about life in the annex, recording her feelings and thoughts in her now famous diary.
In the 2024/25 season, the Piccolo youth theatre club engaged intensively with her life, work and death. The group travelled to Anne Frank House and approached her story through writing workshops and in-depth research. The performers, aged between 16 and 20, come from diverse backgrounds and also contributed Jewish perspectives to the creative process. The production premiered on 26 April 2025 at the Piccolo Theatre.
The Piccolo youth theatre club traces Anne’s remarkable life story to its end. How can rituals of remembrance be broken open in order to arrive at a form of remembrance that actively engages with the present?
