Contemporary plays as well as classics from German or international playwrights, ranging from Goethe to Brecht and Shakespeare to Goldoni, are performed by the company here. The season lasts from early October to the end of July. You can reserve tickets by phone Monday to Friday from 10am to 6pm, but must pick them up at least 2 days before the performance. The box office is open Monday to Friday from 10am to 6pm and on Saturday from 10am to 1pm, plus 1 hour before performances. The theater also has a second smaller venue called Werkraum, where new productions -- mainly by younger authors and directors -- are presented. The location is at Hildegardstrasse 1 (call for more information).
