Institut für theatrale Zukunftsforschung
The Institut für theatrale Zukunftsforschung occupies the Zimmertheater in Germany, where theatre becomes a laboratory for performance’s future. Since 2018, directors, actors and digital artists have tested how live work can respond to a changing world.
Residencies and co-productions bring artists from Europe’s independent scene into projects about digitalisation, artificial intelligence and everyday life online. These performances turn urgent social questions into encounters between stage, audience and technology. The institute also helped found Theaternetzwerk Digital in 2021, sharing practical knowledge about digital transformation in theatre. During the pandemic, the venue tested safe hybrid formats that connected performance with new ways of attending.
Its work reached the shortlist for the national ZukunftsGut award in 2020, recognising cultural mediation built around discussion and experimentation. Here, theatre treats the future as something to question together, with each production probing what performance can become.

The myTuur app is free, and once you are standing at a spot its story starts by itself.
Spots like this one are the stops myTuur strings into tours through Tübingen. In the app, each story begins where you stand: walk up to a spot and it starts, read it on screen or listen as you go, then follow the route to the next one.
What is myTuur?
