Behind the Scenes

This tour offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the Salzburg State Theatre. Led by Hans Joachim Erxleben, the long-standing chief stage manager, visitors explore areas such as the makeup department, the lower stage, the fly system, and the costume department. Erxleben combines expert knowledge with entertaining anecdotes and provides insights into the history and present of the theatre – one of Salzburg’s most important stages.

The tour is particularly interesting for anyone who wants to learn more about the processes and secrets of theatre operations. For young theatre enthusiasts, there is also the separate "Theatre Tour with Checker Manuel," specially designed for a younger audience.
