Theater landscapes

Münster Municipal Stages

It is one of the youngest major cities, a demographic idyll so to speak: Münster, the Westphalian student Mecca with more than 55,000 students, has always been a good place for the arts because it has this young, curious and experimental audience.

And a lot of tradition: Albert Lortzing was there as an actor and singer and Götz Alsmann.
The former gave the local theater his good name, the latter almost sacrificed his reputation.

The successful musician and entertainer from Münster reveals unpleasant truths about his flopped operetta performance to presenter Esther Schweins.
This edition of Theaterlandschaften also tells a lot about the cultural, architectural and literary history of an entire region that was and is shaped by theater.
From the converted abattoir of the butchers' guild in 1774 to the daring post-war building, the Fünfspartenhaus in the German cycling metropolis of Münster.
And artistic director Wolfgang Quetes presents the theater's new season, which, with its selection of plays and venues, is completely dedicated to the 1200th anniversary of the diocese of Münster.
