From the 18^th to the 25^th June 2010 the 11^th World Festival of Children’s Theatre takes place in Lingen (Ems).

The roots of the present festival date back to the year 1990 when the first worldwide festival for children's theatre opened in Lingen. Now, it is considered as one of the most important international festivals of its kind. Hosted by organisers in Moscow / Russia, the festival now returns to its roots in Lingen (Ems), Germany.

Symposium

Theatre to Survive

The main topic of the meeting is the question how much children who grow up under critical circumstances are effected by cultural work and theatre playing.

Children suffer in a very special way under social and political injustice, wars, natural disasters and also under individual familiy crisis and severe illness. Art and theatre can help to overcome conflicts and problems and to come to terms with traumatic situations.
