Metronom Theater, Musical theater building in Neue Mitte Oberhausen, Germany.

The Metronom Theater is a musical theater in Neue Mitte Oberhausen with roughly 1,830 seats spread across orchestra and balcony levels. The venue is modern in design and offers good sight lines to the stage from nearly all seating positions.

Built from November 1998 to September 1999 for 30 million euros as an arena with 1,807 seats, the venue opened on 24 September 1999 as TheatrO CentrO with Peter Maffay's Tabaluga & Lilli. Stage Entertainment Germany took over on 1 August 2005, rebuilt it in 14 weeks for about 20 million euros, raised capacity to 1,830 and renamed it Stage Metronom Theater. After the last Tanz der Vampire show on 12 March 2020 it stood closed for four and a half years; Semmel Concerts bought it in March 2024 and reopened it that November.

The name Metronom refers to the venue's steady rhythm of long-run productions: from 2005, one musical played eight times a week for about a year. German-language versions dominated, including Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Wicked, Sister Act and Tanz der Vampire, staged in 2008–2010 and again from 2019. Since 2024 the house hosts touring musicals, shows and concerts.

The theater sits near the CentrO shopping center and is easy to reach by car or public transport. Visitors should check ahead to ensure tickets are available, as popular shows often sell out quickly.

The roof is shaped like a dragon's head, a detail designed for the opening production of Peter Maffay's Tabaluga & Lilli. In June 2015 the old green roof membrane was replaced with a silver one to enable a new lighting design. The building was erected between November 1998 and September 1999 at a cost of 30 million euros.
