Wonderful Institution! I haven't been there for too long…read morenow, i last saw "deadly game" which was great. The theater is rather small but cozy and the actors are good to understand. Annoying are only the school classes that have been forced to come by their english teacher and can't keep quiet. Other than that i love the place!

The English Theatre of Hamburg is a great institution for all English speakers in the city…read more Plays (only one at a time) change every quarter and are - most of the time - very good and entertaining. While I really like the comedies played in the English Theatre, "Orphans", which I saw lately, was truly a masterpiece and probably the best one so far. It is a very small and cozy theatre having merely one small stage within a room for approximately 100-150 guests. It is therefore recommended to book and reserve in advance. Card prices are very moderate, ranging around 20€ per person and depending on the seating. Students get a considerable discount. The Theatre sells drinks and snacks at a small bar in the lobby at reasonable prices. For more than two years, I have seen every single play in the English Theatre of Hamburg and will continue to do so. I can recommend it to anyone.

Traditional but somewhat interesting programme. And most remarkable is the Neumeier Ballet…read moreFormation, unavoidable. Booking at least 3 months in advance gives you a chance to get the cheap seats (9 to 20 Eur), really enjoyable.

I went there on the week end to watch the musical EVITA. The…read morelobby is quite spacious and has enough place for all the spectators to stand without being elbowed by one another. They serve wine, beer, pretzels and the lot. The theater itself is rather big. I am not sure how many people fit there, but theres a Parkett and Balconies (loges). I was sitting almost at the top of the parkett area and naturally its built in a slope so everyone was able to see the scene without problems (except for me, who was unlucky to have the tallest man in Hamburg in front of her :( ) Evita was in english and there were subtitles (actually supratitles?) on a big screen hanging on top of the scene. that was quite annoying, people had to twist their necks to be able to read. It was either read or watch the show. you cant multitask, fortunately for me my english is better than my german, so i was able to understand the musical without referring to the sub/supratitles I dont have any complaints. Would gladly be back if there's another interesting show (in english)

One of the best theater in Hamburg…read more The first time I went there, was for Vor Sonnenaufgang and it was mordern and beautiful! This Theater has a really amazing ensemble and chequered stage play. As a student it is quiet cheap and I can only recommend to go there!!

My boyfriend's father performs here periodically so I've been here a few times already. I honestly…read morethink that the St. Pauli Theater would do it's artists a large favor and invest in a better sound system. While it's not horrible by any means, my boyfriend, who is a trained sound engineer, kept complaining. There are a few petty issues I have with the theater, however. The toilets are located in the performance hall itself - if you'd like to use the toilet during the show, you're ushered off into the neighboring pub. There are poles extending down from the ceiling in the middle of row 6, and if you're stuck behind them, you won't see a blasted thing. Overall, it's a decent theater, but that's where it ends. It attracts some great names at decent prices, though, so if you're looking to see a performance by some of Hamburg's originals, this looks to be the place to go.

Fabrik is a brilliant concert venue. The roof is so high that it feels like a cathedral, but…read moreactually I think it used to be a factory of some kind. There are (at least) three levels, but when I was there they had only opened up one and a half. Even so there was loads of space. I can't believe that it took me a year to finally get along to Fabrik - I'll definitely be back - I'd like to go for one of their club nights

Was there yesterday (second time) to see Black Seeds from NZ. Great gig and the choice of the venue…read morewas perfect: 1) it's relatively small (it was about 500 people yesterday and it was full) so the band can interact with public and pass on the energy. When you're close to the stage - you feel it! 2) very informal, relaxed atmosphere. Drinks are sold at the bar, also there is a snack bar in the corner. 3) there are also places to sit and inner balcony/gallery upstares - need to try it next time! Verdict: great music venue, will go again. Darjeeling
