Vienna’s English Theatre

Discover the best attractions in Vienna and plan unforgettable experiences.

Vienna’s English Theatre is something very special. Because in the middle of the Josefstadt in Vienna you will find here a little piece of Great Britain at its finest – and that with a good dose of a wink. With its foundation in 1963, Vienna’s English Theatre was the first foreign-language theatre in Europe.

Since then it has become, in no time at all, an important address for international society and is regarded as an artistic institution of rank and renown. As such, the English Theatre also attracts world-famous actors, some of whom also come from the world of film.

In this small theatre with nostalgic charm, the entire range of English and American classics is offered to you at the highest level. But world premieres, too, find a worthy audience in the Josefsgasse of Vienna.

Whether you want to see a modern thriller, a comedy by Oscar Wilde or other witty farces – at the English Theatre there is sure to be exactly the right thing.

For all fans with a love of detail, Vienna’s English Theatre is a true gem of the Viennese art scene!
