Rimini Protokoll is a German theatre group founded in 2000 by Helgard Haug, Stefan Kaegi, and Daniel Wetzel. They create stage plays, interventions, scenic installations, and radio plays. Many of their works are characterized by interactivity and a playful use of technology.[1]

Methods and organization

[edit]

Rimini Protokoll is a collaboration between the artists Helgard Haug, Stefan Kaegi, and Daniel Wetzel.[2] The three met while attending the Institute for Applied Theatre Studies at the University of Giessen in Germany.[3] They are a team of authors, directors, and designers of sound, stage, and videos, who have been working together since 1999.[4]

A few characteristics typically apply to Rimini Protokoll productions:

  • the group works as an artist collective,[5][6] sometimes including all of them, sometimes only one or two, sometimes collaborating with "outsiders".[7] They use the name Rimini Protokoll as a common and recognizable label for their productions.[8][9]
  • organization around a protocol rather than a dramatic text, meaning a script that has been developed in rehearsals cooperatively and sets a loose framework for the performance[10]
  • Rimini Protokoll usually work with people they call "experts of the everyday".[11] This expertise is not associated with theatre, such as acting skills, but rather with a 'real life' competence or a profession that has shaped them[11][12] Examples include truckers, secret service agents, model train enthusiasts, police officers, etc. These people convey their experiences, stories, clothes, accents, and even specific habitual movements onstage.[11] This is seen as a key element of Rimini Protokoll's "new documentary theatre".[12]
  • use of media technology[11]
  • staging productions in representative locations or extending the stage to public spaces[13]

Awards and recognition

[edit]

Rimini Protokoll have several times been invited to the "10 best" of the theatre festival Berliner Theatertreffen, most recently with "All right. Good night." (2022)[22] and "Chinchilla Arsehole, eyeye" (2020).[23]
