Stage painter (m/f/d) temporary as parental leave replacement for the Heilbronn Theater

Under the directorship of Solvejg Bauer, Theater Heilbronn is launching an artistic reorientation: in addition to drama, young theater and participatory formats, the repertoire will be supplemented by in-house musical theater productions.
