The main entrance is accessible via a wide ramp with a handrail. There is a door opener by the door for the main entrance. The entrance area and the auditorium on the ground floor are step-free. Some doorways within the building do have steps. The theatre is subdivided into an entrance area, an auditorium, a bar on the ground floor and a bar on the first floor.

Access to the seats in the rear stalls including four wheelchair places is at ground level. Our front of house staff will guide visitors to their places upon request. A rollator may be left outside the auditorium. In the entrance area (foyer) benches without backs are available as seating. In the bar «Zur Schönen Aussicht» chairs and tables can be repositioned if necessary.

REDUCTIONS FOR VISITORS WITH DISABILITIES
Persons with disabilities are entitled to the same discounts at all the Bavarian State Theatres on presentation of relevant disabled ID (in German: «Schwerbehindertenausweis»). In order to qualify for these, the disabled ID must be marked with one of the codes EB, Bl, VB or B. For persons with ID marked code B their companion is entitled to a 100% reduction, while the ID holder pays the regular price. Reduced price subscriptions can be ordered in writing with a copy of the disabled ID through the subscription office of the Bavarian State Theatres (Bayerische Staatstheater). For all reduced prices, a processing fee of 2 Euro per ticket will be charged on orders made in writing or by phone. Please note that these reductions only apply to buying tickets and it is not possible to combine different categories. Reduced price tickets are only valid in combination with the ID that justifies the reduction. If the ID cannot be produced, an additional sum must be paid to make up the full ticket price.

WHEELCHAIR USERS
Wheelchair users are given free admission (for ID generally marked with code B or aG). A seat can be booked for a companion at a 50 % reduction. The wheelchair places are marked ♿ on the seating plans.
Places for wheelchair users are to be found in the Residenztheater stalls, at the right and left ends of rows 16 + 17. Companions sit in the stalls in rows 16 + 17 in seats 441, 442, 465 and 466. In the Cuvilliéstheater, the places are found in the stalls at the right and left ends of row 12. Their companions sit in row 12 of the stalls in seats 155 + 156. In the Marstall there is one wheelchair place. Please reserve your wheelchair place in good time by phone on 089 2185 1940, by email to tickets@residenztheater.de or by post to: Residenztheater – Tageskasse – Postfach 100155, 80075 München. It is generally no longer possible to organise wheelchair places at the evening box office.

PEOPLE WITH VISUAL DISABILITIES
People with visual disabilities (disabled ID marked with code BI) and a companion each receive a reduction of 50 % on the regular ticket price. Guide dogs are permitted, please inform the theatre staff in good time.

PEOPLE WITH A HEARING DISABILITY
Visitors with analogue hearing aids, digital hearing systems and cochlear implants fitted with a T-coil can borrow mobile radio receivers from the information desk in the right lower foyer. For visitors who are hard of hearing who do not have hearing aids, radio receivers with headphones are available. Both devices can be borrowed for a deposit of 10 Euro or a valid ID document. The deposit will be returned when the radio receiver is given back again. Our front of house staff at the desk will be happy to answer any questions.

You can also find the location of the desk on the accessible overview of the Residenztheaters here.

Residenztheater offers some shows with English surtitles. You can filter the schedule to find these shows.

Please indicate at the box office whether you would like a seat with surtitles when purchasing a ticket. You can also buy your ticket online. For the best view, we recommend the seats in the stalls from row 10 to row 16, especially in the middle. The seats in the middle section of the balcony and all rows in the tier are also recommended.

We offer introductions or post-show audience discussions for many of our performances. The dates for these can be found in the monthly schedule.
