The ensemble deliberately does not use any technical effects, sound technology or stage sets.<\/span> The actors leave the closed stage space and play in the middle of the audience instead.<\/span> To be visible, they operate on stilts that are up to 1.60 meters high.<\/span> In addition to their acting talent, they also show off their perfect body control.<\/span><\/p>\n

The idea for this performance technique came about when the actors were involved in the “Freies Theater M\u00fcnchen” (FTM).<\/span> In 1983, actors Wolfgang Tietze and Rheinhold Behling founded the “Lechwehrtheater” as an independent theater ensemble.<\/span> After a few changes, the group was led by Wolfgang Tietze, Wolfgang Hauck and Peter Pruchniewitz from 1994 under the name “Die Stelzer”.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1999, the group was transformed into a GbR, which is represented by Wolfgang Hauck and Peter Pruchniewitz.<\/span> In 2018, the management team was reorganized with Leonard Mandl and Wolfgang Hauck.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ensemble has made a name for itself internationally by developing the “theater on stilts” genre.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
