Maralam Theater
Transcultural Theatre
MARALAM is the first transcultural theatre in Switzerland. MARALAM emerged from encounters with refugees and people with a migration background of the unforeseen and so unexpected nature. This, along with the multilingual projects and programs and the collaboration of artists with different cultural backgrounds, remains an important feature of the diverse work of those involved in MARALAM. Continuity in diversity.
MARALAM works with the sensual means of the “performing arts” in the broadest sense and opens up an unusual, imaginative view of social phenomena in connection with the foreign and the unknown in times of globalization.
Bridge builder between cultural spaces
Since 1985
Due to its “globe spanning ” contacts to cultural practitioners, MARALAM is also involved in local productions but also in various countries: a bridge builder between cultural spaces.
Projects & productions
MARALAM has been conceiving and producing transcultural performing arts projects since 1985. Projects and productions are created at home and abroad with domestic and foreign partner organizations in the Middle East, North Africa, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe and German-speaking countries, among others.
organizes
MARALAM organizes tours, events and workshops of created projects at home and abroad.
consults - evaluates - produces
MARALAM consults, evaluates and produces cultural projects and programs for and with other institutions at home and abroad.
small projects & workshops
A further focus is on countless events and performances for schools and young people, both in and out of school. MARALAM conducts events, individually adapted small projects and workshops on movement, play, theatre, text development, music, especially rap and hip hop, and crossover formats with experienced leaders.
CROSS-BORDER - CROSS-DISCIPLINARY
WE ARE CREATORS OF CULTURE
MARALAM sees itself as a platform on which unusual, cross-border and cross-disciplinary projects are negotiated and realised in both a literal and artistic sense. Artists with different cultural backgrounds lay traces to their own and to foreign worlds.
With their specific life experiences and often different perspectives, the MARALAM members involved from a wide variety of cultural background always allow their own themes and forms to flow into the projects. This results in productions with thematically unexpected and surprising approaches and a unique mixture of the most diverse theatre and performance forms.

Andere Menschen dienen als äussere neuronale Kreisläufe, die uns helfen können, die Lücke zwischen getrennten neuronalen Netzwerken zu überbrücken, uns neue Ideen zu geben und in uns Gefühle zu aktivieren, zu denen wir vielleicht nie einen Zugang hatten oder die wir vergessen haben.
