The theater became the cultural center of the city, drawing artists and audiences from across the region. It remains an important gathering place for the local arts community.
The building is easily accessible in the center of Teplice and can be viewed from the outside. Those interested in attending performances should check the current program in advance.
The opening night featured Richard Wagner's opera and was a major cultural event. The work was chosen to emphasize the theater's importance to the city.
