VOLKSTOUR: Experience Munich's People's Theatre up close
On November 9, 2026, Munich's People's Theatre opens its doors for a special tour behind the scenes. The VOLKSTOUR takes you through the premises of the building and provides insights into the stage, theatre operations, and history of the renowned Munich playhouse.
A look behind the scenes
Apart from the audience room, theatre is experienced as a multifaceted process. The tour makes visible those places where productions are prepared, technical processes are coordinated, and the atmosphere of a performance is created. Set design, lighting, acoustics, and the precise organization behind each performance come together to create a fascinating stage experience.
Theatre history and present
Munich's People's Theatre combines traditional folk theatre with contemporary stage art. The house was opened in 1983 and moved to the new building in Munich's slaughterhouse district in 2021. Under the direction of Christian Stückl, it shapes the cultural landscape of Munich with classic and modern productions as well as the festival Radikal jung.
Theatre atmosphere up close
The VOLKSTOUR focuses on the areas behind the visible performance: on work pathways, stage areas, and the invisible precision that condenses acting and directing into a vivid theatre moment. For theatre lovers, there is an immediate encounter with the place where dramaturgy, technique, and artistic energy work together.
Conclusion
The VOLKSTOUR promises a vivid change of perspective and an intense stage experience at Munich's People's Theatre. Those who want to experience theatre not just as a finished performance, but as a living cosmos, will discover the stories behind the curtain on this tour.
