    Totally great!!! Very impressed by the complexity of actions for actors. Sometimes it’s so scary even to look at the skating, adding acting and great singing makes it all very impressive!

    This was a very dynamic and fun musical. I only speak English but was still able to enjoy it. Very different and unique experience and I'm impressed with the skating skills.

    The highlight of my Germany visit. This theatre, I was told, was especially built to house the Starlight Express show. And you can tell - it is perfect. Everything was exactly what I was expecting, but on a larger scale. I had no idea there would be a train outside. I had no idea the decor would resemble a Hauptbahnhof. I had no idea the seating capacity would be so great. And I had no idea quite how close to extraordinary talent travelling at 30mph I would be seated. I will be doing this again.

    The best - Amazing musical and incredible setup. I am not so much into musicals but this was great. Just to think that the entire theater is built only for this purpose is crazy - Parking next to the venue is 4 euros for 24 hours - we were driving through Bochum and spontaneously showed up and had front row tkts available To Improve: - nix, everything great

    Although it’s in German, it is still a wonderful show with top stage design and effect in this special designed theatre for a single show.

    Fantastic show, quite long, great voices, loved the stage setting and seating was great in "Mitteltribüne links" with unobstructed view.

    An amazing show in a wonderful theatre; don't speak a word of German but that didn't matter. The show was magical from the start. The skating is amazing and races are spectacular. We had the revolving parkett seats - well worth it!

    Wow! What a show! We visted the matinee of Starlight Express in Bochum. A brillant experience for young and old. The cast were excellent! The voices, the acting and the performance on skates, just breathtaking! The lighting and effects, the sound, everything was just, just wow! The staff at the refreshment‘s bar are patient and professional which made the the whole experience a great evening for all the family.

    Photos are not allowed during the show but sure you can take photos before and after. Parking is close by. The food was not really great for its price.

    Such a great show. We really enjoyed it. Most of the cast is English btw. They put a lot of effort into the new show

    Nice location easy parking The show was impressive, you can't really understand the lyrics and the price is a bit high .. Staff can improve their behaviour towards foreign visitors sorry not the hall world is German

    Even though I had a seizure right at the end of the show as it finished, I loved it otherwise. I was so blown away.

    Brilliant absolutely brilliant, purpose built theatre enhances the production no end

  • 3/5 Samad G. 2 years ago on Google
    A musical based on fantasies of a boy. Very nice scenes and performances from the roller-skaters. Nevertheless, I suppose it would not be interesting for those lacking perfect levels of German language. Except for some scenes, most part were repetitive movements from the performers. It is worth seeing it only if you live nearby.

    One of the best musicals running since the 80s. This purpose build theater gives you the experience of your life with human trains passing you at high speed and a team that welcomes you hearty at the platform.

    Nice show and nice theater! But I would say it is overpriced! Don't get me wrong... the show is good, but the tickets normally cost around EUR100 and i would say 70 would be more than fair enough
