The English Theatre

The English Theatre in Hamburg shows dramas, thrillers and comedies exclusively with British actors from London.

As the oldest professional English-language theatre in Germany, this award-winning international theatre in the heart of Hamburg offers a unique cultural experience in the original English language.

The English Theatre of Hamburg is a true gem in the German theatre landscape. Founded in 1976 by Clifford Dean and Robert Rumpf, it is now run by Paul Glaser in co-operation with Rumpf and Dean. With a diverse range of performances, visitors are offered exclusive theatre evenings with contemporary dramas, British and American classics, exciting thrillers and humorous comedies. Performed by high-calibre actors from London. There are also a number of special evenings on offer, when the stage is used for literary and musical programmes by invited guest artists.

The theatre, which is highly praised by critics and audiences alike, has even been described as a kind of London West End stage in Hamburg.

Thalia in der Gaußstraße

The Gaußstraße is an annexe of the Thalia Theatre and at the same time district theatre of Hamburg Altona – open to all from Greater Hamburg, but with a strong connection to the creative melting pot Altona consisting of workers, members of the middle class and an increasingly intercultural society.
