Naturtheater Reutlingen, Open-air theatre in Reutlingen, Germany.

Naturtheater Reutlingen is an open-air theatre set at the forest edge with covered seating for visitors. The structure combines steel frameworks, wooden paneling, and green cladding elements while accommodating approximately 1,000 spectators.

The open-air stage in the Wasenwald forest opened on 17 June 1928 with Schiller's Die Jungfrau von Orléans, performed by almost 200 people. It grew out of the Dramatischen Klub founded in 1912, whose members visited the Naturtheater in Heidenheim an der Brenz in 1926 and began building in 1927 with volunteers. The complex was destroyed in the final days of the war and the association banned; it was refounded on 8 August 1946, and from 1949 the stage was rebuilt on its original site with a new auditorium of 1,200 seats, reopened in 1950 with Wilhelm Tell.

The venue hosts theatrical productions, concerts, and outdoor cinema events that draw both local artists and visitors from the surrounding region. The summer season fills with this diverse program that shapes the cultural life of the community.

The venue is accessible by vehicle and the wooden stage design provides clear sightlines from all seating areas. The roof provides weather protection while open sides allow good air circulation during performances.

The theatre was integrated directly into the natural forest landscape, allowing the woodland itself to become part of the stage setting. This connection with nature creates an unusual backdrop for performances that sets it apart from conventional indoor venues.
