IKARUS
Citizens support the IKARUS 2024
Since 2004, the IKARUS has been awarded once a year by the JugendKulturService as a prize for particularly outstanding productions by Berlin Theatres for children and young people. Due to the positive reception from Theatre professionals and audiences, this Theatre prize has been given even more "wings" and has taken off to new heights since 2013.
With its endowment, the IKARUS is no longer just a non-material prize for outstanding Theatre productions, but also a promotion and encouragement of further artistic daring in Theatre work for children and young people.
The endowment is made possible by funds from the Senate Department for Education, Youth and Family and the support of citizens.
