THEATRE - SPACES: creating spaces, according spaces. On the basis of an examination
of the cultural memory of varying epochs up to the present day, the study is seen as a laboratory for analyses, development
and information. As the centre of theatrical presentations, the stage not only explores classic theatre, but also new areas
and spaces and social situations, as well as known and still unknown scenic realities through the employment of standard and
new media.
Stage Design at the Vienna University of Applied Arts serves artistic, artistic-scientific, artistic-conceptual,
technical-crafts and practice-oriented, educational and professional training. Students should evolve into independent,
artistic personalities and implement the abilities and skills that they have developed in the field of stage and film design.
