The international group owns and licenses more than 70 productions worldwide, employs nearly 4000 employees and owns or runs theaters in eight countries, including the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Italy, Russia and the United States.
In 2002 the German subsidiary took over the insolvent Stella AG. Through Stella AG they acquired many productions and theaters, including the Theater im Hafen and the Neue Flora in Hamburg.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“... that there is no other way,
That the history of creation proceeds according to
Stringent laws, and that things
Do get done in this way, but never the things
We set out to accomplish and wanted so desperately
To see come into being.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“If man is reduced to being nothing but a character in history, he has no other choice but to subside into the sound and fury of a completely irrational history or to endow history with the form of human reason.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
