WANDEROPER BRANDENBURG

Founded in 2011, WANDEROPER BRANDENBURG is a non-profit association based in Bad Freienwalde, Germany working on arts & culture, education, children & youth.

The WANDEROPER BRANDENBURG is a non-profit association for cultural education based in Bad Freienwalde, Germany. It brings professional opera and musical theatre to towns and rural areas across the state of Brandenburg, where few or no regular theatre offers exist, with a particular focus on schoolchildren and young people. Productions are staged in a wide range of venues, including school halls, sports halls, theatres and former prisons, and are often accompanied by workshops that explain instruments, singing and the nature of opera. The association was founded in 2011 and, according to its own statements, had given around 130 performances to roughly 30,000 spectators by the time of its reporting. Its stated aims are the promotion of education and upbringing and the promotion and dissemination of art and culture, pursued exclusively for charitable purposes. Ticket prices for school students are kept low, and the association works with school authorities and district administrations to reach pupils.
