In recent years successful youth ensembles have formed at the CABUWAZI Altglienicke, Marzahn, Tempelhof and Treptow.
Several times a week young adults train self-organized for their own shows, which are performed throughout the year in the circus tents, at outdoor performances or festivals.
If you are interested in participating or, alternatively, booking our youth ensembles as show acts, please contact the locations offices.
Altglienicke
Children and young adults from the age of 14 work in Altglienicke‘s youth group in a participative and autonomous way on technical skills and their own shows. CABUWAZI trainers support and accompany them, especially in theatrical and artistic questions. The ensemble has set its own highlights in recent years with the musical “Anna and Felix” (2010 and 2011) and the two plays “Delecrea” (2012 to 2014) and “Mutatio” (2014).
Marzahn
The members of the Marzahn Formation “Da Capo” have been training in CABUWAZI‘s advanced courses for many years and therefore have a very high level of circus technique and artistic skills. The group trains independently twice a week with great success.
At numerous competitions within Germany and beyond, “Da Capo” has won prizes and awards. The group is regularly booked for big events and parties and has already performed several times at the summer party of Berlin’s governing mayor.
Tempelhof
At the end of 2019, a new youth group was founded at our Tempelhof site. The group is currently training on Fridays from 18-19.30.
The special thing about the group is that they train and communictae in many different languages and share their experiences with diversity and migration beyond the boundaries of the group. In this sense the offer is open to all young people interested in circus. Previous experience in circus arts is not necessary.
Treptow
YOU’N’ME are teenagers and young adults between 14 and 26 years. They work independently on productions incorporating acting, dancing, singing and lots of circus. The performances focus on social themes and the young people’s living environment.
Beyond training and performance, here they continue their education in circus pedagogy. All participants acquire the youth trainer’s certificate, complete an instruction, first aid training and certify as co-trainers. Their extraordinary group work and commitment already earned them the Youth Action Prize.
