The premiere of CATS on April 18, 1986 in Hamburg marks the beginning of a new German musical culture. As a result musical productions by amateur ensembles have flooded the amateur stage: Broadway and West End hits, special children’s youth and school musicals as well as a growing number of creative house productions. The annual meeting 2018 of friends and patrons of the German musical archive will take a closer look at the phenomenon “Musicals on the amateur stage”: Among other things, it addresses the origins of culture and social history and reports from the field under which conditions amateur cultural musical productions can succeed.
