Landestheater Tübingen, Municipal theater in Tübingen, Germany
The Landestheater Tübingen is a state theater housed in a converted furniture factory building on Eberhardstraße 6 in downtown Tübingen. The venue hosts diverse productions and maintains several performance spaces within its structure.
The theatre grew out of a free acting group that formed the Städtisches Schauspielhaus Tübingen in 1945, playing in the Schiller Hall of the museum, a hall also used as a cinema. In 1947 Tübingen and Reutlingen joined in a Zweckverband, and with support from the state of Württemberg-Hohenzollern the Landestheater was created in 1950. In 1975 the vacant Schäfer chair factory was found, converted over four years, and opened on 23 September 1978 with the German premiere of Kroetz's Mensch Meier; the Great Hall followed on 21 September 1979 with Schiller's Die Räuber.
The theater employs a permanent ensemble of actors performing a mix of classical European dramas and contemporary works. Audiences experience different theatrical styles throughout the performance season.
Visitors can purchase tickets at the box office or reserve seats by phone. The central location makes access convenient using public transport or on foot from nearby areas.
The Junges LTT program creates productions specifically for young audiences, combining music, dance, literature, and performance art. This initiative makes theater accessible to children and teenagers in creative ways.
