TI - Crisis of the Audience in German Theater?
AB - 
	Research indicates that German theater is struggling with an audience crisis demonstrated by a decrease in audience attendance. The aim of the article is to present various positions indicating an audience crisis in German theaters and their analysis in the context of the latest concepts of audience research. In modern German theater, two orientations clash, one focusing on the art itself, the other leaning towards the audience and its development. Can you find a compromise between such extreme positions? Does the crisis of the public in German theaters refer only to economic factors? Or it is worth, as I indicate in this text, to analyze the situation of the progressive development and responsibility of the audience of some German theaters, examples are theaters in Halle, Weimar and Berlin.
