Theater im Zentrum

Theater im Zentrum is a performance venue in Vienna's First District with a hall that seats around 230 people. The space is equipped with technical facilities that support theatrical productions and musical performances.

The building opened in 1913 as Grand Gala and served various purposes during World War I, including as a recreation space for recovering soldiers. A significant renovation took place in 1929 that substantially changed the auditorium layout.

The theater operates as part of Theater der Jugend and presents productions that enrich Vienna's performance offerings. Visitors can experience different forms of theater here, created by an ensemble working in this intimate venue.

The theater is located at Liliengasse 3 in Vienna's First District and offers wheelchair accessibility. You can reserve seats by phone at +43 1 521 10-230 or simply arrive and see what is being performed.

The theater was designed by architects Eduard Prandl and Carl Witzmann, with Witzmann raising the audience area by roughly two meters during renovation. This change fundamentally altered how sound travels and how the stage is viewed from the seating.
