Meiningen State Theatre, Theatre company in Meiningen, Germany
The Meininger Staatstheater presents opera, drama, concerts, and puppet theatre performances in a classical building at Bernhardstraße 5 in Meiningen.
Founded in 1831 as Meininger Hoftheater, the institution operated under royal patronage until 1920 when it transitioned into a state theatre.
The theatre maintains an orchestra called Meininger Hofkapelle, which performs regular concerts and accompanies opera productions throughout the season.
The theatre receives funding from the state, city, and county of Schmalkalden-Meiningen through the Cultural Foundation Meiningen-Eisenach.
Between 1874 and 1890, the theatre revolutionized directing techniques through its ensemble Die Meininger, which influenced theatre practices across Europe.
