GIRL (AT) at the Theater in the Garage: Youth, Dissent, and Stage Courage

With GIRL (AT), the Höhenflug theater club is bringing a play to the stage at the Theater in the Garage that speaks from the present and hits precisely where theater is strongest: right in the midst of life. The evening gathers young people aged between 14 and 17 who experiment, question stereotypes, and not only sharpen their view on beauty ideals and patriarchy but consistently reject them. The performance takes place on June 20, 2026 at 19:00 in the intimate space of the Theater in the Garage; the ticket price is 6.40 euros.

A Theater Evening with Conviction

This is not a decorative youth evening, but a stage experience with a clear stance. The ensemble speaks from their own perspective, without filters, without distance, and with that immediacy that only a young ensemble can unfold. The direction by Melanie Kuch focuses on collective presence and the interplay of language, body, and conviction. Particularly in the small space of the studio stage, a theater atmosphere unfolds where every glance, every pause, and every movement carries weight.

The Garage as a Resonance Space

The Theater in the Garage itself amplifies this effect. The venue was established in 1975 from the student theater movement, was modernized in 1989, and is today regarded as a stage with an intimate atmosphere and flexible seating. The space is built for closeness: around 60 seats, short distances between the audience and the performance, an acoustics that makes even quiet undertones audible. Additionally, the attached theater café serves as an extra place to arrive and reflect. ([schauspiel-erlangen.de](https://schauspiel-erlangen.de/spielstatten/theater-in-der-garage))

A Piece from the Language of Self-Empowerment

The thematic setting is clear: the ensemble refuses narrow ascriptions and formulates a self-understanding that demands change. This is where the dramaturgical power of this production lies. GIRL (AT) acts as a public rehearsal for the future, as if a young collective occupies the stage as a negotiation space for their generation. This form of theater club has a tradition at Schauspiel Erlangen: young people collaboratively develop their own theater and bring their ideas into a performable form.

Visiting with Practical Benefits

Those who attend the evening will experience a concentrated, urban theater format with clear framework conditions. The box office opens one hour before the performance begins, the theater box office is located at Theaterstraße 1, and due to limited parking options, it is recommended to use public transport for arrival. With the theater ticket, the journey within the network area is free. ([visit-erlangen.de](https://www.visit-erlangen.de/poi/theater_in_der_garage-33786/))

Conclusion: GIRL (AT) promises no loud effects but rather a precise, honest, and direct encounter with young theater. Anyone looking for articulate conviction, collective joy in performance, and a dense theater atmosphere should experience this evening live.
