Circustheater, Musical theatre in Scheveningen, Netherlands

The Circustheater features a grand auditorium with 1852 seats, presenting large-scale theatrical productions throughout the year in the coastal district of The Hague.

Established in 1904 as a summer venue for Circus Schumann, the building transformed into a musical theatre in 1964 following changes in public entertainment preferences.

The theatre stands as a central performance venue in the Netherlands, hosting extended runs of international musical productions like The Phantom of the Opera and Les Misérables.

Visitors can access the theatre via tram lines 1 and 9 or bus lines 21, 22, and 23, with three parking facilities available within walking distance.

The building's renovation in 1991 cost 25 million guilders and turned it into the first theatre in the Netherlands dedicated to open-ended musical productions.
