Rostock University of Music and Drama

Rostock University of Music and Drama is a public institution located in the city center and housed in a restored building originally designed as a convent. The facility contains teaching spaces, rehearsal rooms, and performance venues for music and theater training.

The institution was established in 1994 through the merger of a music department and a drama school, both rooted in established East German educational traditions. This combination brought together faculty and methods from both fields.

The institution serves as a gathering place for artists in Rostock, hosting performances throughout the year where students present their work to audiences. These events are woven into the city's cultural life and draw people interested in experiencing music and theater.

As a public institution, the place offers various events where visitors can experience student performances. The best way to get a feel for campus life is to attend one of the regular concerts or theater productions held throughout the year.

Acclaimed actor and painter Armin Mueller-Stahl took on a leadership role in 2009 and shaped the institution's artistic direction. His involvement linked international theater standards with local training practices.
