The English Theatre Frankfurt
The English Theatre Frankfurt plays a pivotal role in the cultural life of Frankfurt, a city with the largest proportional international community in Germany. The theatre has become an important landmark for the Frankfurt-Rhein-Main region, due to its consistent, high-quality standards, international flair and function as a meeting point for people of all nationalities. The Hessen government have referred to it as a beacon for the whole region.
The English Theatre presents a diverse program of its own productions for a broad audience. The shows offer a wealth of entertainment on a high level.
The English Theatre produces at least five plays per season. This includes classics, comedies, thrillers, contemporary plays and musicals. The casting and rehearsal of the theatre´s own productions are held in London.
70% of the visitors to the English Theatre are German speakers and the remaining 30% stems from the large English-speaking community in and around Frankfurt.
The theatre’s auditorium seats 300 and makes use of the latest audio-visual technical equipment. The adjacent bar, James, has two floors equipped with cosy but contemporary furniture, which underlines the unique atmosphere of the theatre itself.
