The Schauspielhaus Salzburg (formerly "Elisabethbühne") is located in the Nonntal district and is the largest independent theatre in Austria.

Small theatre with a big impact

With around 60,000 visitors a year and ten to 14 in-house productions, the Schauspielhaus has secured itself a fixed place in Salzburg's events schedule. The theatre focuses on premieres and first performances and theatre productions for young audiences.

How long has the theatre been in existence?

In 1958 the Elisabethbühne was founded in the cellar of the Elisabeth Church, and in the 1995/96 season the theatre moved to the Petersbrunnhof, a former estate of St. Peter's Abbey in Salzburg's Nonntal district. Since the 2004/05 season, the theatre has had the name "Schauspielhaus Salzburg".

The wide range of productions at the Schauspielhaus

The classic vault of the columned foyer is not only an atmospheric space for the interval, but also a venue for readings, vernissages and exhibitions. In addition, there are educational theatre projects for young people, and in nearby Elsbethen in the south of Salzburg there is a drama school, workshops, a props room and rehearsal stages.
