The German Theatre Publishers' Prize 2024 goes to the music theatre department of the Deutsches Nationaltheater Weimar for its impressive efforts in the field of contemporary music theatre.
"The fact that music theatre is written and composed in our time for our time, and thus becomes an indispensable part of the repertoire, is both a commitment and a self-conception of Andrea Moses, Michael Höppner and Dominik Beykirch, who have headed the DNT's music theatre department since 2021. [...] With its decision, the jury honours the perseverance, passion and care with which the DNT is committed to contemporary music theatre," writes the Association of German Stage and Media Publishers (VDB).
