P14, the young theatre group of the Volksbühne, one of the most prestigious in Berlin, is taking part in the Sala Beckett Workshop with a performance directed by Julius F. Brauer and Marlene Kolatschny, who also wrote the text. P14 is a project addressed to young people aged 14 and over that invites them to create productions that will later be performed before an audience. In this group, each participant does the job they like the most: from lighting to performing.
