The role of Andreas Schrobitz

Andreas Schrobitz, who takes over the management of the theater project, exudes passion for the art of acting. His enthusiasm for Romy Schneider began in 2004 with the film “La Piscine”. This fascination led to the founding of the association, the focus of which is the recognition of Romy Schneider's acting achievements. The other founding members show similar enthusiasm and commitment in the field of art and culture.

Julia Hübner and Janine Schneider are also active members and share their inspiration from the Sissi trilogy and the strong personality of Romy Schneider. The association has set itself the goal of keeping Romy Schneider's work and significance alive in order to create appropriate recognition in film history.

Cultural participation in Berlin

The KiA program, which will be used in Lichtenberg in 2023 to promote art and culture in districts with few offerings, is also relevant for the children's theater project in the “Haus der Jugend Zehlendorf”. A total of 20 projects in the Lichtenberg district received funding from the KiA program of the Senate Department for Culture and Europe. The program focuses on children's, youth and puppet theater and aims to increase cultural participation.

The performances, which have taken place at various locations since May 15, 2023, include numerous exciting plays for young audiences. Funding these theater projects is a further step towards strengthening the cultural infrastructure for children and young people in Berlin. In addition to the “Haus der Jugend Zehlendorf”, other venues in Berlin also benefit from this initiative in order to create a broader offering.

The theater project in the “Haus der Jugend Zehlendorf” not only represents a valuable opportunity for young actors, but is also in line with efforts to make the cultural scene more attractive for the next generation.
