Comoedienhaus Wilhelmsbad

Comoedienhaus Wilhelmsbad is a theatre in Staatspark Wilhelmsbad featuring classical architecture with approximately 211 seats arranged for performances. The building has a traditional layout that creates an intimate setting for theatrical and musical presentations.

The theatre was built in 1781 by architect Franz Ludwig Cancrin and opened with a performance of the comic opera Tom Jones. This construction marked an important moment in the cultural development of the Wilhelmsbad area.

The theatre hosts regular performances including plays, concerts, and cabaret shows that draw local audiences throughout the year. Visitors can experience different types of entertainment in this active cultural space.

The theatre is located within Staatspark Wilhelmsbad and can be easily accessed on foot; the park surroundings offer pleasant spaces to spend time before or after a visit. Visitors should note that performances pause during summer months and checking the programme in advance helps plan your visit.

Since 2019, visitors and art enthusiasts can support the theatre through a sponsorship programme by adopting individual seats. This approach allows community members to directly participate in keeping this venue operational.
