Die 5te Dimension is an amateur improvisational theatre group from Hanover, Lower Saxony, Germany.[1] Active since 2000, it performs improvised shows, matches and long-form pieces based on suggestions from the audience.[2][3]

History

The group has existed since 2000 and has performed in Germany and Switzerland. It toured Lower Saxony in 2008 and 2010, and in 2007 and 2009 organised long improv nights with guest groups from Hanover, Cologne and Zurich. In 2010 it won the Lower Saxony Impro-Cup (Niedersächsischer Impro-Cup) at the Niedersachsentage in Celle, and in 2011 it hosted the Impro-Cup in Hanover, in which five improv groups from Lower Saxony took part. In 2013 it organised the ImproShake.[2] In June 2014 it played an "Impro-Derby" against 4gewinnt in the Brunsviga in Braunschweig.[2]

In November 2024 the group gave its first performance at the Kulturfabrik Krawatte in Barsinghausen, with a guest appearance by a former member.[4]

Repertoire

The group's shows are fully improvised: scenes are built from audience suggestions in changing game formats, ranging from everyday situations to opera or western parodies. It also holds a traditional Christmas improv show and performs at private events.[3][1]

Venue

The group regularly plays in the theatre room of the Stadtteilzentrum Nordstadt (Bürgerschule) in Hanover.[3]

Organisation

The group has repeatedly taken part in the Niedersächsische Theatertage of the Amateurtheaterverband Niedersachsen e. V.[2]
