Junge Theater Göttingen

Junge Theater Göttingen is a venue for theatrical performances housed in a renovated building at Bürgerstraße 15 with multiple performance spaces. A permanent ensemble of professional actors shapes the programme and the quality of its productions.

The theatre was founded in 1957 by Hans-Gunther Klein and started with a performance of Urfaust before a small audience in an intimate chamber setting. From this modest beginning, it developed into an established house with multiple performance spaces.

The theatre produces works ranging from classic adaptations to modern pieces that engage with diverse themes and storytelling approaches. Audiences find a mix of theatrical styles that reflect both traditional and contemporary creative interests.

Visitors can purchase tickets online or at the box office for regular performances throughout the theatrical season running from September to June. Planning ahead and booking in advance is advisable to secure preferred seating and show times.

French singer Barbara performed her famous song about this city for the first time on stage here in 1964. This concert remains remembered as an important moment in Franco-German cultural relations.
