Rabenhof Theater – small theatres in Vienna

The Rabenhof Theatre in Vienna’s third district is a favourite of many. Off the beaten theatre track (both in location and what they’re all about) the Rabenhof dares to venture into the unknown with the formats it puts up on stage. Located in a state housing apartment building, the theatre used to be part of Theater in der Josefstadt in the 90s and became an independent theatre venue in 2000. At Rabenhof Theater, you’ll find all sorts happening on stage: contemporary urban folk theatre with a pop-cultural approach, cabaret artists turned actors, Schlager musicians become stage musicians, authors giving colourful readings. If they do happen to run one of the theatre classics, they’ll be sure to turn it around and mix it up.

You’ll also find more than ‘just’ plays happening there; with concerts, comedy shows and many new other performances finding their way onto the program. They also have English-speaking performances or shows, on occassion. Due to the programme’s versatility, the Rabenhof Theater has a very heterogeneous audience that differs from show to show.
