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.

Biedermann und die Brandstifter (The Fire Raisers) - 3 Dec
In the city where Gottlieb Biedermann runs his hair tonic factory there has been a series of arson attacks. One day »friendly« strangers appear at the businessman’s door and introduce themselves as the pedlar Schmitz and salesman Eisenring. Biedermann invites them in, offers them a drink and is ultimately even willing to hand them matches. Max Frisch’s »morality play without a moral« is a political parable that derives its critical power not from unmasking lies but from the disturbing insight that the truth itself may have no consequences if nobody is willing to listen to it.

Meine Königin - 12 Dec
In her new play the multi-award-winning playwright Caren Jeß presents people who are struggling with their inheritance and weave stories around themselves and others. A play about the tender and empowering but also the intrusive and violent narratives that we invent about ourselves and others – a play about estrangement and empathy.
