    I went to see Cyrano Debergerac there. I was disappointed. It was transformed into a hip-hop/rap version. There was also a large rack of lights on stage that they continued to use to blind the audience. The play wasn't "all that bad", but the actors also used "mouth props" when they could have done the scene without things as such well. Example, Cyrano making Roxanne a cappuccino, all the while making all of the prop noises himself. The theater itself was nice, stadium seating, and a great sound system. I would love to go see another play there, but not one in the same Hip-Hop style.

    A theater. Saw Wonderland Ave. By Sibylle Berg there. The place has a quite nice outdoor area for the after show glas of wine. Staff was extraordinarily friendly and helpful. Wardrobe will help even with larger pieces. Enjoyed the visit even though the room got ridiculously hot. Bit of AC would be nice.

    Great performance. Well service just missing a bit more communication skills during to accommodate people for the showing outside as inside is the same treatment.

    Very big Theater place, well respected between Theater enthusiasts. Lighting and sound are phenomenal and for the few times I've been there I always had an amazing time. Even the staff are very nice! And for the actual theater pieces I would think that is highly subjective, but in my case they were all great. Would totally recommend

    (Translated by Google) The DEPOT is a very interesting provisional, but the management (Bachmann) and the actors make the best of it in different pieces! (Original) Das DEPOT ist ein durchaus interessantes Provisorium, aber die Leitung (Bachmann) und die Schauspieler machen in unterschiedlichen Stücken das absolut beste daraus!

  • 5/5 Beatrix B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The location is only a temporary solution until the completion of the Schauspielhaus in the city center, but still a cool location with a very informal atmosphere, small but nice. Very easy to reach by public transport. Performance of "Romeo and Juliet" was TOP. Highly recommended if you like modern revision. 👌 (Original) Die Location ist zwar nur eine Übergangslösung bis zur Fertigstellung des Schauspielhauses in der Innenstadt, aber trotzdem eine coole Location mit sehr familiärer Atmosphäre, klein aber fein. Sehr gut mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln zu erreichen. Aufführung von "Romeo und Julia " war TOP. Sehr empfehlenswert wenn man moderne Überarbeitung mag. 👌

    (Translated by Google) Sensational ballet 'New Ocean' by Richard Siegal and his new company (Ballet of Difference) at the Kölner Schauspiel. Depot 1, the outdoor venue of the Kölner Schauspielhaus on the Carlswerk site, offers the right setting. (Original) Sensationelles Ballett 'New Ocean' von Richard Siegal und seine neue Kompanie (Ballet of Difference) am Kölner Schauspiel. Depot 1, die Außenspielstätte des Kölner Schauspielhauses auf dem Carlswerkgelände bietet den dazu passenden Rahmen.

    (Translated by Google) Do you really have to stage Kleist's "Die Hermannsschlacht" if you want to avoid the nationalistic tones and then have to resort to rather embarrassing attempts at deconstruction ?! I would have left it entirely or accepted the challenge of the controversial discussion on the culture of remembrance. Otherwise, we love the Cologne theater in the depot and are already mourning the venue afterwards. Corona measures implemented very convincingly! (Original) Ob man Kleists "Die Hermannsschlacht" nun wirklich inszenieren muss, wenn man die nationalistischen Töne vermeiden möchte und dann zu eher peinlichen Versuchen der Dekonstruktion greifen muss?! Ich hätte es gleich ganz gelassen oder die Herausforderung der kontroversen erinnerungskulturellen Diskussion angenommen. Ansonsten lieben wir das Schauspiel Köln im Depot und trauern der Spielstätte jetzt schon hinterher. Corona-Maßnahmen sehr überzeugend umgesetzt!

    (Translated by Google) All the events I have been able to attend at Schauspiel Köln so far were characterized by great locations, impressive stage sets, very good actors and great productions. I would highly recommend a visit to anyone. I still have the imposing performance of Dogville in my head regularly. Keep it up. If I could improve something. The catering could still be optimized a little. (Original) Alle Veranstaltungen die ich von Schauspiel Köln bisher besuchen durfte zeichneten sich durch tolle Locations, imposante Bühnenbilder, sehr gute Schauspieler und tolle Inszenierungen aus. Ich würde einen Besuch jedem wärmstens empfehlen. Die imposante aufgührung von Dogville habe ich bis heute regelmäßig im Kopf. Weiter so. Wenn ich etwas verbessern würde. Die Verpflegung könnte noch ein wenig optimiert werden.

    (Translated by Google) Nice staff and interesting atmosphere due to the location and the premises. I didn't like the play, but the Schauspielhaus can't help it. The toilets are a bit narrow, but there are enough available. I think that's important if the play is longer, you have a short break in between and the theater is well attended. Drinks and snacks can also be purchased. (Original) Nette Mitarbeiter und interessante Atmosphäre aufgrund der Lage und der Räumlichkeiten. Das Stück mochte ich nicht, aber dafür kann ja das Schauspielhaus nichts. Die Toiletten sind etwas eng, dafür aber genügend zur Verfügung. Das finde ich dahingehend wichtig, falls das Stück länger geht, man eine kurze Pause dazwischen hat und das Theater gut besucht ist. Getränke und Snacks können ebenfalls erworben werden.

    (Translated by Google) the "Schauspiel Köln" could always keep and preserve its performance location in the Carlswerke in Cologne Mülheim .. what should be better in the new playhouse in the center, if it escapes its purpose at the same time as the opera ... the acting skills of the outstanding and excellent actors definitely not .. the connection with public transport (4) works perfectly too .. so nothing stands in the way of enjoying Schiller, Goethe and Shakespeare ... and next door is the organic garden , which comes up with herbs, bushes and flowers .. the two restaurants, if desired also cafes, invite you to linger or to have a "nightcap" as you like .. the old theater also waited with a glass of "red wine" when there was its last performance many years ago, which could then be "served" on the seats because these were then disposed of after the last performance .. (Original) das "Schauspiel Köln" könnte auf immer seine Aufführstätte in den Carlswerken in Köln Mülheim behalten und bewahren.. was sollte im neuen Schauspielhaus im Zentrum, so es denn zeitgleich mit der Oper mal seiner Bestimmung entgehen sieht, besser werden ... die Schauspielkunst der hervorragenden und exzellenten Schauspielerinnen und Schauspieler bestimmt nicht.. die Anbindung mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel (4) klappt auch hervorragend.. also steht dem Genuß von Schiller, Goethe und Shakespeare nichts im Weg... und nebenan ist dann noch der Biogarten, der mit Kräutern, Sträuchern und Blumen aufwartet.. die zwei Restaurants, nach Belieben auch Cafés, laden zum Verweilen ein oder zum "Absacker", wie,s beliebt.. das alte Schauspielhaus wartete auch mit einem Glas "Rotwein" auf, als es vor vielen Jahren seine letzte Vorstellung gab, welches dann auf die Sitze "kredenzt" werden durfte, weil diese nach der letzten Vorstellung dann entsorgt wurden..

    (Translated by Google) Very inspiring location (depot). Sufficient parking spaces, comfortable chairs and a very good view of the stage even from the "cheap seats". Great acoustics. Gladly again, but not to Schiller's robbers. Scary ... (Original) Sehr inspirierende location (Depot). Ausreichend Parkplätze, angenehme Stühle und sehr gute Sicht auf die Bühne auch von den "billigen Plätzen". Klasse Akustik. Gerne wieder, aber nicht zu Schillers Räubern. Grusel...
