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.

Bye Bye Lolita - 1 Oct
Vladimir Nabokov’s 1955 novel »Lolita« became a bestseller, albeit a controversial one. Since its publication, it has been the subject of heated debate, with accusations of pornography and calls for a ban on publication on the one hand, and admiration for its literary finesse on the other. The author viewed his title character – who has become a dubious myth – through the eyes of her stepfather. In her successful debut novel, Lea Ruckpaul allows Dolores Haze to survive and recounts the story of years of abuse in retrospect, with the analytical insight of an adult woman who does not wish to be understood solely as a victim.
