Creative - collective - dynamic! The theatre is a multi-layered cosmos in which people in artistic, craft and technical professions work together towards one goal: the premiere evening.
In the large special exhibition 2025/26, visitors can enter the backstage area of the Munich Residenztheater and accompany the current production of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet", which premieres on 16 May 2025.
How and under what conditions do people work together in the dramaturgy department, in the workshops or on the rehearsal stage? The exhibition asks what moves the theatre world today, 50 or 100 years ago, shows highlights from the historical collections of the Deutsches Theatermuseum and invites everyone to discuss the future of theatre!
