WHAT PATRONATSVEREIN IS ABOUT
We support productions whose artistic realization cannot be financed through the regular budget, support young artists in their training and promote special events and introductions to productions. We aim to arouse interest in the art of opera, theatre and dance across all age groups.
With your membership fee, your donation and your dedication to the arts, you support special, outstanding productions or parts of productions. Another important task of Patronatsverein is to inspire people for the performing arts, who do not yet have a connection to opera, theatre and dance.
OPERA | THEATRE | DANCE
It is often the special, outstanding and extraordinary in a production that is made possible with the support of Patronatsverein.
This can be special costumes, lighting, original instruments, commissions, filming or many other things. Here is a small selection of the work that has been supported by Patronatsverein:
KURT WEILL / CARL ORFF
For these two short operas, the elaborate mechanisms for the rapid changes and transformations within the stage set and the production of several marionette puppets were financially supported by Patronatsverein.
ANJA HILLING
Actors and dancers perform together within this production. Violence of antisemitism, racism and colonialism are brought to life in their touching performance. This cooperative production has been supported by Patronatsverein.
ENSEMBLE SCHAUSPIEL FRANKFURT
It had been a heartfelt wish by the actors of Schauspiel Frankfurt to come up with an evening of songs, changing the choice of songs regularly. The budget for costumes, props and the piano tuner has been sponsored by Patronatsverein.
RICHARD STRAUSS
100 musicians create the opera Elektra in the orchestra pit, in which the Oper Frankfurt ensemble is complemented by three top-class guest singers. The highly acclaimed production is sponsored by Patronatsverein.
Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company
The film, which shows the special character of the Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company, whose dancers were all trained in classical ballet, was produced with funding from Patronatsverein.
