Project Overview

THE ITI GERMANY PRIZE

The prize of ITI Germany is an award to honour, support and make visible the work of transnationally working theatre artists.

Since 2016, the prize has been awarded as the ‘Prize of the International Theatre Institute’ to artists who make a significant contribution to international cultural exchange between Germany and other countries through their commitment to the performing arts.

The prize is awarded by the members of ITI. A jury consisting of five members (including two board members) proposes a list of nominees to the membership for voting. The jury is composed anew each year.

The prize has been endowed since 2017. The prize money currently amounts to 3,000 euros.
