Theater in der Josefstadt
The Theater in der Josefstadt - with more than 350,000 visitors and over 700 performances per season - is one of the most successful theaters in the German-speaking world, where Ferdinand Raimund and Johann Nestroy performed and Johann Strauss conducted. In 1924, Max Reinhardt had the Josefstadt converted into a space for contemporary escapism, decorated with red damask, gold jewelry and Venetian chandeliers. Today, under director Herbert Föttinger, a team committed to contemporary theater works on premieres and first performances and contemporary interpretations in this architectural jewel.
