Due to renovation work on the Main Stage, we will not be offering English surtitles again until November.
For international guests, Schauspiel Leipzig offers performances with English surtitles at regular intervals. Furthermore, English-language introductions will give you interesting background information about the plays and their productions.
The surtitles are best visible in the stalls (Parkett), starting from row 10. Surtitles are only partially legible in the tier (Rang). Please bear this in mind when purchasing tickets.

Four Walls and a Roof
Lina Majdalanie & Rabih Mroué (Beirut/Berlin)
Leipzig-Premiere on 30.4. / 20:00 / Residenz (Spinnerei)
Next dates: 2.5., 3.5. + 5.5.
In English with German subtitles
During his exile in the USA in 1947, Bertolt Brecht was interrogated by the ‘House Committee on Un-American Activities’, which was supposed to combat communist activities. Majdalanie and Mroué link Brecht's case with their own exile experiences. The critical and humorous examination of the interrogation echoes the current political and social issues, the ideological confusion and the fierce and irreconcilable confrontation of opinions.
