Since 1993, the Else Lasker-Schüler Dramatist Prize (German: Else-Lasker-Schüler-Dramatikerpreis) has been awarded by the Pfalztheater Kaiserslautern on behalf of the Rhineland-Palatinate Foundation for Culture. The prize is named after expressionist poet Else Lasker-Schüler (1869–1945). It is endowed with €10,000, one of the most highly endowed playwright prizes in Germany. The award ceremony at the opening of the Theatertage Rheinland-Pfalz in the Pfalztheater or Staatstheater Mainz is carried out by the Prime Minister of Rhineland-Palatinate. Additionally the Stückepreis is awarded for promoting young talents.
