Schauspielhaus Zürich, Theatre company in District 7, Switzerland
Schauspielhaus Zürich operates three performance spaces, including the main Pfauen stage and two additional stages within the Schiffbau complex.
The building, constructed in 1892 as Volkstheater am Pfauen, transformed from a music hall with a beer garden into a theatrical venue in 1901.
The theater presents a diverse program of spoken performances, dance productions, and installations, featuring both traditional plays and contemporary works.
Performances include English surtitles, and visitors receive a 50 percent discount on all ticket prices every Monday for shows at every venue.
During the 1930s, the theater became a refuge for artists fleeing Nazi Germany, leading to premieres of works by Bertolt Brecht.
