In the location's words:

The Theater Dortmund has a tradition of over 100 years and offers a broad, very varied program for all ages and tastes. With its 6 divisions and around 80 new productions per year, Theater Dortmund is one of the largest and most productive theatres in Europe. The six divisions are ballet, opera, the philharmonic orchestra, drama, children's and youth theater (KJT) and the Academy for Theater and Digitality.

With over 800 employees, Theater Dortmund devises and rehearses the majority of performances in Dortmund. The costumes, masks and props are created in-house and made by hand.

The performances take place at several venues, the largest stages are the opera house with almost 1,200 seats, the Schauspielhaus offers space for around 500 spectators and the children's and youth theater offers around 150 seats. The Dortmund Philharmonic Orchestra performs its own concerts in the Konzerthaus Dortmund, but accompanies the opera and ballet productions from the orchestra pit in the opera house.

With bold formats such as the Nordstadtoper, ballet performances at Bodelschwingh Castle or in the Reinoldikirche, the Tiny Music House in the schoolyards of Dortmund's elementary school, the Ape(lina) from the Schauspiel at various locations in the city or the recently established Feierabend-Markt on the Opernvorplatz, Theater Dortmund is open, flexible and approachable. A very special mix of tradition, contemporary art and innovation.
