A performance theatre of modern times and simultaneously an Orion of forgotten traditional theatre roots.
antagontheaterAKTion was founded by Bernhard Bub in 1990. It is an unconventional theatre project that always brings together life and labour. Performances emerge with the means of physical theatre, expressive dancing, acrobatics and stilt walking. Productions are characterized by music, fire and sculptural stage sets and are developed by artists from all over the world.
antagon tours worldwide and is host to “Sommerwerft”, the annual theatre festival in Frankfurt.
