Staatstheater Mainz

In the heart of Mainz, the State Theatre is a vibrant meeting place for artistic and social engagement. The multi-genre house unites opera, drama, and dance under one roof and features the Grand House, the Small House, the Studio Stage U17 deep underground, and the Glass House with a view of the cathedral. A fixed ensemble and continuous collaboration with five resident directors shape the theatre's profile. An extensive repertoire with numerous cross-genre productions ensures a varied schedule.

The artistic work of the theatre reflects both the region and international classics, unusual projects, and contemporary works. The central question is always about relevance for the present: What themes concern us today?

A special focus is on the young State Theatre "justmainz." All genres produce pieces for children and young people, and the ensemble is passionately involved in these productions. Cultural education and participation are promoted through a diverse program for all age groups, close cooperation with schools and kindergartens, and numerous theatre education offerings. Especially in contemporary children's music theatre, the opera division sets important accents with its own composition commissions.

Accessibility is a top priority at the State Theatre: Wheelchair users can easily access the building via a well-paved ramp and automatically opening outside doors. Access routes, ticket offices, and accessible restrooms are designed to meet the needs of people with disabilities.

The dance division "tanzmainz" works contemporary and internationally. By collaborating with renowned choreographers from around the world, the ensemble attracts outstanding and versatile dancers to the Rhine. The "tanzmainz festival," first held in 2015, quickly became a regionally significant event and made Mainz an important destination for dance enthusiasts.
