Brix Schaumburg, Host

January 19, 2023 leonie

We’re beyond excited to announce our host for the 37^th TEDDY AWARD Ceremony on Feb 24^th at Berlin’s Volksbühne: multi-talented Brix Schaumburg returns to the TEDDY stage to lead us through a night filled with entertainment, suspense, and lots of information about the queer Berlinale movies.

Brix Schaumburg is Germany’s first officially outed trans actor. If you’re looking for the ordinary, you’ve come to the wrong place. He is committed to a world without pigeonholes and labels. As a diversity coach, he advises companies and brands. With his very personal story and his commitment as a media person, he wants to sensitize, enlighten, promote discourse, and create more awareness in dealing with fellow human beings from the most diverse backgrounds. He is also active as an ambassador for the DGTI (German Society for Transidentity and Intersexuality), among others.

TEDDY TODAY: 20.02.2022

February 20, 2022 ruxi

Today marks the end of the 72^nd edition of the Berlinale.

What a terrific time we had with all the film premieres, interviews and of course, the award ceremonies for the GOLDEN BEARS and the TEDDY AWARDS. In spite of all the restrictions we faced, we’re extremely happy to have been able to send a clear message to our community and beyond: no pandemic will keep us from celebrating queer talent, creativity and solidarity!

It has been a tremendous honour to be able to share this experience with you. May the next TEDDY AWARD edition be once again the glamourous event we’ve come to know and love.

Stay safe and stay optimistic – see you in February 2023! ❤️

Today’s the big day: the TEDDY AWARDS are being given out at the Volksbühne – and you can join us via live stream!

We’re so excited for tonight’s show, and even though there can’t yet be an audience, we have a wonderful program prepared for you. In spite of all the restrictions, we’re more than happy to be able to set a sign: no virus will keep us from celebrating queer life and queer creativity and solidarity.

There will be live performances by GEORGETTE DEE as well as by RASHA NAHAS. For the first time, BRIX SCHAUMBURG is going to host the TEDDY AWARDS and MICHAEL STÜTZ (Head of Panorama) will join us for a little chat with ZSOMBOR BOBÁK. Last but not least, our fantastic TEDDY JURY will be there to award four brilliant filmmakers for their work.

So open a little bottle of bubbly and join us for the party! 🥳
