Ein-Mensch-Theater ( "human being") is a German expression for a traveling theater, within the owner is writer, director, stage designer, performer and sometimes even his own tour manager in one person.
The term was coined by Natias Neutert after his performance (The poet reels into the Open) at Schauspielhaus Bochum during a panel discussion with Peter Zadek
His intention was going to replace the worn and partial label one-man show by a label under which both males and females could find equally.
Dario Fo, Robert Kreis, Johnny Melville, Natias Neutert and Franca Rame became famous exponents as this type of theater in Europe.
