The Ludin-Theaterproduktion is a theatre production company in Hanover, Lower Saxony, Germany, founded in 1998 by the actor, director and author Andreas Ludin.[1] It produces children's and youth theatre, comedies, dramas, cabaret, murder mystery dinners and event formats.[1][2]
History
Andreas Ludin had worked in Hanover for ten years as an actor, director and author when he founded the company in 1998 to realise his dance-theatre piece Streetball – (K)ein Platz zum Spielen, staged in September 1998 with more than 100 performers in cooperation with the Susanne Bothe dance school. It was followed in 1999 by the youth drama Der Bruch. The company then concentrated on children's plays and on event formats such as walking acts and a music-comedy duo.[1]
In February 2004 it staged the psychological thriller Misery after Stephen King, directed by Jens Schlieper, which was also shown in Braunschweig, Hamburg, Lingen and Salzgitter. In April 2004 Thomas Ahrens's "globalisation crime play" Der Ball ist rund premiered; supported by the Dritte-Welt-Forum Hannover, it toured schools and theatres in Lower Saxony and Bremen until summer 2006, including a performance at the German Protestant Church Assembly in Hanover in May 2005. The one-man comedy Allein in der Sauna by Frank Pinkus, with Andreas Ludin, premiered on 28 January 2005. From April 2006 the company offered the one-man play Morgen hör ich auf, a portrait of an alcoholic, for addiction-prevention events; in 2008 it co-produced the play with the Hannoversche Kammerspiele. In 2007 a second dance-theatre production with the Susanne Bothe school, Ludin's Abgefahr'n, premiered with about 200 performers at the Theater am Aegi.[1]
Ludin also wrote commissioned works for other amateur groups, including the fairy tale Aladin (2006) for DIE kleine BÜHNE and the musical Die Schöne und das Biest (2008) for The Batz in Bad Nenndorf.[1] In 2010 the company premiered Ludin's crime dinner Schwarzes Gold, which combines a murder mystery with information on fair trade in coffee.[2]
