City repertoire theatre is offered in Cologne at the playhouse on Offenbachplatz, as well as at other venues such as Schlosserei, Westend-Theater and Halle Kalk: dramas of world literature as well as contemporary plays and the Avantgarde are included in the repertoire.
The number of playhouses is augmented by numerous private theatres: in the (Boulevard) »Theater am Dom«, in the charming »Senftöpfchen«, in »Theater Der Keller«, »Theater Im Bauturm«, in cabaret, as well as in cult houses of brash theatre, the curtain goes up evening after evening before an excited audience. Some smaller theatres like »Theater am Sachsenring« or »Studiobühne« offer programmes in English and other languages. A special case on the German theatrical scene is that of the »Volkstheater Millowitsch« – an age-old Cologne institution that has become a household name for millions of television viewers: the family has been involved with Cologne theatre since 1848, for over 50 years in the main theatre on Aachener Strasse, and is now in its sixth generation of actors.
