About the house

The Theater am Goetheplatz opened on 15 August 1913 as a neoclassical playhouse, launching not with an opera but with Oscar Wilde's A Woman of No Importance. A bombing raid destroyed it in October 1944. Rebuilt with a modernized facade, it reopened on 27 August 1950 with Goethe's Egmont and emerged from the war as a full multi-genre house; a thorough modernization followed in 2004. Today it is the main stage of Theater Bremen, used above all for music theatre, with the Bremer Philharmoniker in the pit.

The house earned its place in German theatre history in the 1960s, when Kurt Hübner's directorship made the Bremen style a byword for radical staging and helped launch Peter Stein, Peter Zadek and Rainer Werner Fassbinder. Opera stands on an equal footing: the company gives roughly 180 music-theatre performances a season, and Mozart's Die Zauberflöte returns regularly to the Goetheplatz bill.
