The audience responded with standing ovations.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"283\" data-end=\"618\">22 artists from 12 countries thrilled audiences in six performances. The magic, the joy, and the gratitude were palpable every single minute. Festival Director Nadja Berger was overwhelmed: <em data-start=\"473\" data-end=\"616\">\u201cOver all these years, YOUNG STAGE has not only launched artistic careers, but has also touched hearts \u2013 and this magical spark will remain.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"620\" data-end=\"1051\">Looking back on countless unforgettable experiences, she emphasized: <em data-start=\"689\" data-end=\"1049\">\u201cI sincerely thank all our partners and supporters, as well as the cantons of Basel-Stadt and Basel-Landschaft for their generous support over the years. Without them, this festival would not have been possible. I also thank my wonderful team and above all our audience. Because without an audience, there would be no circus, no culture, and no YOUNG STAGE.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1053\" data-end=\"1182\">With this final festival evening, an era comes to an end.
