ENGLISH SURTITLES
The filter below allows you to search specifically for all performances with English surtitles.
The Residenztheater produces performances in German only – however, some of these are shown with English surtitles. Please indicate at the box office whether you would like a seat with surtitles visible when purchasing a ticket. You can also buy your ticket online. For the best view of the surtitles in the Residenztheater, we recommend the seats in the «Parkett» from row 10 to row 16, especially in the middle. The seats in the central section of the «Balkon» and in every row of the «Rang» are also recommended.

Die Jungfrau von Orleans (The Maid of Orleans) - 4 Jun
A warrior of God, heretic, saint: at an early age Jeanne d’Arc heard voices that commanded her in God’s name to defend France against England in the Hundred Years War. She helped the feudal state under King Charles VII to victory before falling into the hands of the English, being accused of heresy, convicted and burnt at the stake aged nineteen. Friedrich Schiller presents her martyrdom, »subordinates the historical truth to the laws of poetry« and creates – in Thomas Mann’s words – a consummate »opera in words«.

Land ohne Wiederkehr (Land of no Return) - 19 Jun
The Soviet Union is on the brink of collapse. In Azerbaijan, pogroms are taking place against the Armenian minority. Young Lada is forced to leave her beloved homeland. She finds a new home in Moscow. Decades later, as a critic of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, she is forced to flee once again. Renowned theatre director Marina Davydova draws on her own experiences to recount the devastating impact that political upheaval has on individuals and the hardships of life in exile.
