Funded projects in Appenzell Ausserrhoden
Appenzell AR supports the theater project "Es Kamel im Zirkus" with 25,000 francs. From mid-June to mid-November 2021, the Department of Education and Culture also awarded a further CHF 71,164 for 28 applications.
On the recommendation of the Cultural Council, the Government Council of Appenzell Ausserrhoden has awarded special support to an application as part of the third funding tranche this year. "Es Kamel im Zirkus" is a music and dance theater piece by Cirque de Loin for young people aged 7 and over. It is being developed in co-production with the "Jungspund! - Theaterfestival für junges Publikum St. Gallen".
This helps children and young people to encounter contemporary theater. The play also playfully addresses current issues such as migration and solidarity. All stage elements and the entire set are designed in such a way that the play can also be performed in venues without a theater stage.
According to the canton's press release, the cantonal government has also taken note of the decisions made by the Department of Education and Culture under its own authority in the period from mid-June to mid-November 2021. A total of 42 applications were processed, of which 28 projects were granted support amounting to a total of CHF 71,164.
