Harburg Theatre

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Hamburg South

Around Harburg's inland harbour, historical and modern architectural styles merge. It's maybe even a bit like HafenCity. Finkenwerder, on the other hand, has the charm of a fishing village. – Here, you see a quite different, almost rural side of Hamburg. Harburg and Finkenwerder are also good starting points for discovering the Hamburg metropolitan area.

Thalia Gaußstraße

The programme at Thalia on Gaußstraße will have a particular emphasis on the multinational connection and at the same time will be a creative location for unusual and young art initiatives.

Gaußstraße is a constantly developing construction site. In the past ten years, it has changed from a factory site into a creative centre with the charm of a New York backyard. The two most important stage ensembles in Hamburg rehearse here (Thalia and Schauspielhaus). And Thalia has captured a venue here. We keep on designing: the foyer will be more open, spacious and comfortable, and invite communication even more decisively. The second venue beside the Thalia Gauß will in future be the Thalia Gauß Garage, a location with patina.

The construction work continues, and with the imminent new construction of the Hamburg Theaterakademie, Gaußstraße will develop into a campus of the performing arts.

Theater history is written here Schmidt Theater

Original musicals, bold comedy, and quirky shows – the name “Schmidt” stands for top-notch entertainment right on Germany’s most famous street: the Reeperbahn. When the curtain first rose at the Schmidt Theater on August 8, 1988, few believed the “offbeat stage” would last. Over 35 years later, the Schmidt is a beloved part of Hamburg’s cultural scene.

At Spielbudenplatz, hospitality is part of the experience: drinks and light snacks are served right at your seat in the auditorium. The theatre’s foyer bar is a café by day and a nightspot by evening – ideal for coffee and cake in the afternoon, a glass of wine before the show, or cocktails and long drinks late at night. A place where theatre fans, night owls, and artists meet.

Upstairs, Restaurant Reep serves hearty North German cuisine – fresh, regional, and with a view of the Reeperbahn.
