Awareness

Respectful Encounter

At an international festival like the Zürcher Theater Spektakel, people with very different experiences come together. That's why it's important that we treat each other with respect. There is no place for sexism, queerphobia, racism, antisemitism, and anti-Muslim racism. This also applies to discrimination based on disability. We also do not tolerate physical, psychological, or sexualized violence.

Through our awareness work, we want to help foster a respectful, discrimination-free environment and raise awareness of these issues. At the same time, we are available on the festival grounds as a point of contact for you if you need support or feel uncomfortable.

HOW THE AWARENESS TEAM IS THERE FOR YOU

Have you experienced or witnessed a situation that crossed boundaries or was discriminatory? Do you feel uncomfortable or need help? Is your sense of safety—or that of someone else—at risk? You can reach out to us at any time.

AWARENESS-TEAM

The awareness team is on grounds on the festival site and can be recognised by their pink T-Shirts or by their mobile cart. We will listen to you, take you seriously and support you.

AWARENESS-PHONE

Are you held up in one place and need help? The telephone is operated during the festival opening hours: (+41) 077 279 00 94

SAFER SPACE

Do you need some peace and quiet and a place to retreat? The barrier-free safer space is located behind the main entrance of the festival site.
