THE SMALL THEATER FLENBORG The first addition to the formation of a true South-Swedish-based amateur theater was made when Arne Aabenhus, after negotiations with Sydslesvig's Danish Youth Associations, was established in the autumn of 1962, a publisher of Sønderjysk Testscene in Sydslesvig based on the "Home" in Mariegade in Flensburg. In the first few years, you worked in the way that you were studying a piece, and when you finished, the play was performed a number of times. All without real season. At some point in time it became insufficient that there was a need for the formation of a real theater and on January 13, 1966 an independent theater was created under the name The Little Theater Flensburg. Some of the goals of setting up an independent theater were to be able to play in a permanent venue, with a fixed play schedule and with regular actors. The small Theater Flensburg has a significant obligation to take care of and promote the Danish language, especially by playing classical and modern Danish drama today, less than part of a national struggle in the borderland, but enough to resist the bombing of foreign shows, movies and videos via television and new electronic media. The spoken theater is a bit difficult, and therefore the Little Theater Flensburg must also have eyes and ears open for impulses from the outside.
