THEATER DER KLÄNGE Events
The Düsseldorf THEATER DER KLÄNGE invites you into a world where the boundaries between music and movement, between sound and emotion, dissolve. Our music and dance theatre ensemble develops a new production each year, premiering exclusively in Düsseldorf.
For the 2026/27 season we are planning a comprehensive retrospective of our work to mark 40 years of THEATER DER KLÄNGE, under the title „Resonance Space 40“. Our rehearsal studio in Düsseldorf-Pempelfort will become an immersive experiential space, with three to four hour-long immersive audio-visual performances taking place each week. Once a month, a live weekend will be held in the studio, presenting selected productions from our 40-year repertoire — mostly in suite format.
Discover with us other possibilities of contemporary music and dance theatre. Be surprised, moved and inspired by performances in which music, dance and theatre fuse into a unique art form.
Ticket Prices
Our ticket prices follow directly from each production’s calculation: we divide the number of performers involved, multiplied by industry-standard minimum fees, by the number of seats at the venue. Ticket income covers the performers’ fees directly – without institutional core funding, a larger cast in a small venue means a higher price per seat.
The reduced ticket price is available to anyone with a low income – for example if you receive Bürgergeld, Grundsicherung, or Wohngeld, if you’re a student or trainee, or if your income is low for any other reason. A brief word at the box office is enough, no proof required.
Getting Here
The nearest light rail stop is Pempelforter Straße (lines U71, U72, U73, U83), about a ten-minute walk from the rehearsal studio at Winkelsfelder Straße 21. The Marienhospital bus stop (lines 706, 707) is also nearby, about an eight-minute walk. If you’re coming by car, the Dieterich-Karree car park at Nettelbeckstraße 8 is also about ten minutes on foot.
Accessibility at the Rehearsal Studio (from October: Resonance Space 40)
The rehearsal studio of THEATER DER KLÄNGE is located in the courtyard behind Winkelsfelder Straße 21. By car, access is only possible as far as the pavement – vehicles cannot enter the gateway itself.
The studio itself is accessible at ground level. Two steps lead into the hall, partly covered by a ramp. The doors throughout the studio are a consistent 90 centimetres wide.
A wheelchair can be rolled through the courtyard entrance to the hall door, and from there via a ramp into the hall. A space in front of the platform is level with the performance area in the front row; companions can sit next to it or directly behind.
Whether our toilets are wheelchair-accessible, we currently cannot say with certainty.

The Start of Our 40th Year
Thirty-nine years ago, on 10 May 1987, Theater der Klänge was founded by nine young artists and friends at the NEUE TÖNE office on Ackerstraße 22 in Düsseldorf — as an artists’ theatre in the form of a registered association. That was the beginning of now 31 theatre and dance projects, and countless new versions, compilations and media works. To mark the start of our 40th year, we are celebrating online.
