Tips & Advice
- Book tickets in advance, especially for evening performances, as many dates are already sold out.
- Check the specific performance times for 'Kinder-/Erwachsenenvorstellungen' (Children's/Adult Performances) and 'Familienvorstellung Abends' (Evening Family Performance) to select the best fit for your group.
- Arrive a little early to find your seats and soak in the atmosphere before the show begins.
- Consider the 'Hofspektakel' (Courtyard Spectacle) for a more elaborate and potentially longer experience, though it comes at a higher price point.
- For younger audiences, the 'Kinder-/Erwachsenenvorstellungen' might be more suitable, while evening performances are geared towards a broader audience.
