With its international section, the Heidelberg Stückemarkt is a fine example of how international collaboration can thrive outside major cities, and of how translators play a key role in this success. Together with writers, translators and professionals from various fields within the theatre and festival sectors, we aim to discuss the challenges of adapting contemporary writing for the performing arts and explore strategies for sustainable practice in international collaboration.
