Practical work is an integral part of the training at Ernst Busch. The university functions like a small theater company. The performances are open to the public and admission to all events is currently free. For an impression of the work from the various departments, take a look at our Highlights 2024. We look forward to your visit.
Acting
It is part of the tradition of the four-year drama programme to organise lessons in small working groups as scene studies with as many and as varied teachers as possible.
Choreography
The degree programme is artistically and practically oriented and enables students to develop and publish choreographic productions in the field of contemporary dance that can hold their own in this field.

Apply nowDirecting
The four-year drama directing course prepares students for independent directing work in an increasingly differentiated reality and an increasingly complex theatre world.
Apply nowDramaturgy

Play & Object
This master's program dedicates its teaching and research to contemporary theatrical processes at the intersection of performance, object, new media, and socio-technological dynamics.
