Till Wiebel works as a dramaturg, writer and director with and for young people. He studied “Scenic Arts” and “Staging in the Arts and Media”  at the Universität Hildesheim, and was a guest student in directing at the Zürcher Hochschule der Künste. Since the 2021/22 season, Till Wiebel has been working at the Junges Schauspielhaus Hamburg. He also regularly teaches at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg.

Already during his studies, he developed productions in various constellations, which were invited to several festivals, including the Körber Studio Junge Regie at the Thalia Theater Hamburg, the Festival International du Théâtre Universitaire (Casablanca), and the Festival of International Student Theatre (Belgrade). His productions with young people were invited to both the Theatre Meeting of Youth and the Dance Meeting of Youth at the Berliner Festspiele, and were also performed at the Hart am Wind Festival and the Augenblick Mal! Festival. For his play FUNKEN, he was awarded the Retzhofer Dramapreis 2021. This was followed by commissioned works for the Schauspielhaus Bochum, the Theater Konstanz, the Junges Ensemble Stuttgart, and various other theatres in Germany and Austria.

With HANS IM GLÜCK, Till Wiebel makes his debut at the Schauspielhaus Zürich as both writer and director in the 2026/27 season.
