These include dismantling stage sets, sorting and repairing props, clearing and organizing storage areas and the prop garage, and preparing the audience hall for winter. Additional work involves painting and general site maintenance, such as pruning trees and raking leaves. Your host will the Open-Air Theatre Heidenheim, the 2nd largest one of its kind in Southern Germany. It is situated on the “castle hill” of the town of Heidenheim an der Brenz, surrounded by forests, and can accommodate up to 1100 spectators. The Open-Air Theatre is run by a non-profit association and they are very excited about hosting again a group of international volunteers.
