Vienna's English Theatre, English language theatre in Josefsgasse, Vienna, Austria

The neo-baroque theatre hall, constructed after 1900, features 250 seats arranged to create close interaction between performers and spectators.

Founded in 1963 by Franz Schafranek and Ruth Brinkmann, the theatre started as a summer venue for tourists before expanding into year-round programming.

The theatre presented the world premiere of Tennessee Williams' The Red Devil Battery Sign in 1976, with Ruth Brinkmann performing the leading female role.

The theatre operates Wednesday through Friday from 10:00 to 19:30, Saturday from 17:00 to 19:30, with performances starting at 7:30 PM except Sundays.

The venue earned the Nestroy Theatre Prize in 2004 for its forty years of contributions to Vienna's performing arts community.
