Anica Happich

born in Magdeburg in 1989, she is a curator, actress, cultural manager, and cultural policy actor working in publicly funded theaters, the independent scene, and the film industry. In 2021, she initiated the PHOENIX Theater Festival, where she supports emerging artists, actively engages in audience research, and brings performances to the entire city with mobile stages and other artistic formats. For the festival, she developed the »radical K’s« – radical cooperation, co-creation, and collaboration. Guided by this principle, she advocates for interdisciplinary approaches and resource sharing. In 2024, together with the team of the Plattenstufen Festival, she received the Zukunftspreis KULTUR GESTALTEN awarded by the Kulturpolitische Gesellschaft e.V.
