Young artists present their graduation show at the Bessunger Knabenschule (Bessunger Boys' School)
The 2026 graduating class of the State School of Artistic Performance in Berlin, entitled "Splendid," will be presented at the Bessunger Knabenschule Cultural Center. In four performances from August 14th to 16th, the young artists will showcase their skills and present the culmination of years of training.
After up to nine years of intensive training, the graduates bring a blend of acrobatics, movement art, and stage presence to the stage. The show unites different disciplines and offers insights into the diversity of contemporary circus.
The title "Splendid" represents a production full of energy, expressiveness, and personal stories. The production is directed by Sammy Tavalis.
The graduation gala is both a conclusion and a beginning: it marks the end of the training period and the start of the professional path of the young artists.
