FairCulture

FairCulture International Youth Theatre Festival was a festival which was organised by the Federal Association of Drama & Theatre, BAG, the JungesSchauspiel at the State Theatre Hannover and the City of Hannover Agenda 21-Büro and Kulturbüro in collaboration with numerous national and international cooperation partners.
