Pangs Theater Ensemble Who We Are

Pangs Theater Ensemble is a performing arts institution founded in 2004 committed to bringing quality innovative
work to the public.

PTE is grounded solidly in theater, yet also devoted to developing cutting-edge multidisciplinary work. We perform
classic pieces and imbue them with our stamp of physical and intense performance and direction. We also stage
new work, which combines various genres into compilation performances, retaining the significance and historical
meaning of their parts and using them to convey universal human messages.

PTE's work is marked by its physical style and by the combination of historical and modern elements in its
productions. Even classics are presented applying a physical, multi-disciplinary approach, including a strong focus
on choreography, body movement, and exploration of the physical space among the characters. Pangs Theater
Ensemble's physical approach is developed by its Artistic Director Wolfgang Thompson.

PTE's work combines elements such as traditional theater, ballet, poetry, classical music, architecture, modern
dance, literature and visual art, into work that often defies classification. If you watch and listen leaving none of your
senses unused, you will see, hear and feel universal concepts of humanity while being entertained by our work.

Our projects are ambitious and unique, leading to an experience for the audience such as they have not before
encountered. The work is innovative, yet historically rich, modern and yet full of meaning. We stand behind the concept
that significance and quality do not have to be tedious, but that substance and entertainment are closely related.

We stage projects which match our passion for art. Join us!
