Thalia Theater (Hamburg)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Thalia Theater is one of the three state-owned theatres in Hamburg, Germany. It was founded in 1843 by Charles Maurice Schwartzenberger and named after the muse Thalia. Today, it is home to one of Germany's most famous emsembles and stages around 9 new plays per season. Current theatre manager is Ulrich Khuon.
In addition to its main building, located near the Alster in Hamburg's inner city, the theatre operates a smaller stage, used for experimental plays, the Thalia in der Gaußstraße, located in the borough of Altona.
