Macbeth in Ansbach: A dark guest performance full of impact and tension
With Macbeth - Guest performance of Hochschule Ansbach, an intense theater experience comes to the Theater Ansbach on June 11 and 12, 2026. The students of Hochschule Ansbach present Shakespeare's classic in their own interpretation and guide the audience through power, ambition, guilt, and fate.
An evening that goes under the skin
The production by LichtAN combines youthful enthusiasm with classic tragedy. A dark theatrical atmosphere unfolds on stage, where the audience's mood is set to tension from the very beginning. The staging takes visitors on a dramatic journey that stays in their minds and lingers long after.
Young talents with a clear signature
LichtAN was formed in October 2024 as an improvisation group at Hochschule Ansbach and has since evolved. After their first stage work at the cultural evening in 2025 and a Macbeth scene in January 2026, this is now the group's largest project to date. The direction is led by Nina Tuchscherer, who has been acting in theater for many years and has also gained directing experience since 2019. Cheyenne Buchmann is responsible for co-direction and production management, bringing organizational experience from cultural events.
Theater experience at Theater Hinterm Eisernen
The audience eagerly anticipates a guest performance at Theater Hinterm Eisernen on the Promenade. The venue is part of Theater Ansbach - Kultur am Schloss eG, a cultural cooperative founded in 2007, which shapes the cultural life of the city with theater, concerts, and puppet shows. The house is considered one of the youngest municipal theaters in Germany and stands for vibrant event planning in the heart of Ansbach.
