City of Ingolstadt reaffirms educational partnerships with cultural institutions for academic collaboration
In a significant move to promote arts and theater education among students, the Ingolstadt City Theater (Stadttheater Ingolstadt) has renewed its partnership with several local schools, including the Katharinen-Gymnasium and Christoph-Scheiner-Gymnasium.
This renewed collaboration, which reaffirms the joint commitment of the Ingolstadt City Theater and the participating schools to cultural education, aims to integrate theater more sustainably into the school education landscape. The partnership includes pre- and post-workshops for productions, behind-the-scenes theater tours, support for theater clubs, and information events about theater professions for career-oriented classes.
The "Get Involved" and artistic mediation department of the Ingolstadt City Theater develops educational formats tailored to school classes and teachers. Over a three-year period, students are expected to get to know various theatrical forms and venues through these agreements.
The renewed partnership also involves cooperation with numerous other schools, including the Christoph-Columbus-Grundschule, the Antonschule, the Sir-William-Herschel-Mittelschule, the Mittelschule an der Schanz, the Gotthold-Ephraim-Lessing-Mittelschule, the Montessorischule Ingolstadt, the Tilly-Realschule, Wirtschaftsschule, and the Reuchlin-Gymnasium.
Regular professional development for teachers is offered as part of the renewed partnership, with the Ingolstadt City Theater supporting this goal with an extensive, age-appropriate offer for all grade levels.
Dr. Matthias Schickel, director of the Katharinen-Gymnasium, and Iris Jamnitzky, director of the Christoph-Scheiner-Gymnasium, signed renewal agreements with Oliver Brunner, intendant of the Ingolstadt City Theater, for cultural education. The aim is for all students of the eleven cooperating schools to attend a performance at the city theater once a year.
The renewed partnership emphasizes that theater is a place for reflection, feeling, and understanding. It aims to enable students to engage with different theatrical forms and venues, fostering creativity and cultural enrichment.
