The Schauspielhaus Bochum is one of the most renowned theatres in Germany

Schauspielhaus Bochum is not only one of the most renowned theatres in Germany, but also a vibrant centre of creative work. Here, modern theatre meets the charm of listed 1950s architecture. With 298 performance days a year, it promises a variety of experiences that leave little to be desired.

From classics of theatre literature to modern productions and innovative world premieres to musical and dance performances - the programme is as varied as it is appealing. The Kammerspiele also offers a colourful potpourri, while the Oval Office is a dynamic media art centre with an avant-garde focus.

You can satisfy your cultural hunger with a tasty detour to the Tanas restaurant. The culinary variety and stylish atmosphere invite you to linger and promise a successful evening, which is perfectly rounded off by the subsequent performances in the Oval Office Bar.

Whether in the main theatre with its 811 seats or in the more intimate Kammerspiele - everyone will find their place here. Thanks to the visionary leadership of artistic director Johan Simons and his predecessors, the Schauspielhaus has cemented its reputation as a cultural hotbed of international stature and attracts theatre lovers from all over the world.
