Young Directors Project
Since 2002 Montblanc is sponsoring the "Young Directors Project", a competition for young, international theatre directors and their ensembles as part of the Salzburg Festival.
Generously made possible by Montblanc and initiated by Professor Jürgen Flimm, the Salzburg Festival's director of drama, this project aims to introduce directors who can be expected to be recognized internationally soon and to make theatre more accessible to younger audiences through highly expressive, pioneering productions.
Born in 1941, Professor Jürgen Flimm has been General Manager of esteemed theatres such as the Schauspiel Cologne and the Thalia Theatre Hamburg.
