a place for the circus scene
Acrobatics, aerials, dance, juggling, martial arts, … TRAP is for those who crave movement, burst with creativity and seek motivation, for artists and doers. An easily accessible structure, open almost any time and for everybody who needs it.

the team
TRAP is located on the SchloR premises. TRAP is developing. TRAP is a dream coming true for all who love, live and breathe contemporary circus and other movement arts – an amazing group of people to realize ideas. The current group consists of Amina, Andrea, Ariane, David, Evamaria, Finnian, Hannah, Hille, Malu, Marlene, Nour, Ralph, Rosaliiia, Sasha and Tanja.
Our organization is structured in plenary meetings, working groups and individual tasks (public relations, cleaning, reservation management, bookkeeping, conceptualization and many more).
TRAP gladly welcomes everybody to contribute organization-wise! If you are interested, please write to [email protected]
Would you like to chip in occasionally for physical labour or at events? Join our TRAPworkforce Signal group.
What’s in it for you? You become part of a group of people that takes matters into their own hands. At our venue for circus and more we can experiment with form and content – within legal boundaries. We don’t accept racism, homophobia, sexism and other primitive ways of discrimination. We want and will turn our societal utopias into a lived reality! So far, we’re halfway there :o)
