Taking place each summer, the Regional Theater Festival Telfs is a major contribution to the vibrant social and cultural life of Tirol. This year, the festival will be held from early July through mid-August under new direction.
Established in 1981, the Telfs Theater Festival is an annual event that brings together artists, theater-makers and audiences from Tirol and around the world. The critically acclaimed festival provides a platform to showcase the best of Tirolean theater by presenting contemporary drama by local theater artists alongside work by exciting, emerging theater-makers.
Held from July 06 through August 17, 2024, the Telfs Theater Festival is under direction by Tirol-native and actor Gregor Bloeb for the second year in a row. Again, the festival offers a contemporary production of “The Seven Deadly Sins”, with new texts by Helena Adler, Uli Bree, Felix Mitterer, Hubert Sauper and David Schalko.
The second theater production of this year’s festival is “Fern von Europa” (“Far from Europe”), published in 1909 by Carl Techet under the pseudonym of Sepp Schluiferer.
The third production is Heinrich von Kleist‘s comedy “Der zerbrochene Krug” (“The Broken Jug”). It follows the story of a judge who presides over a trial where he has to settle the question of who had broken a jug in the room of a young woman late one night, while himself acting highly suspiciously both before and throughout the whole trial.
