Professional Berlin artists and independent Berlin groups — and institutions working especially for and with Berlin's independent scene — who have made at least one production successfully performed in Berlin (for music the original production may have been outside Berlin). The artist, or the majority of a group, lives and works in Berlin. The revival must previously have been funded by the Berlin Senate, must not have started, and may not receive money from another Berlin programme or the Hauptstadtkulturfonds.
