Welcome to
The Karlsruhe State Theater is one of the largest multi-genre theaters in Germany. The genres **[opera](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/programm/oper/), [ballet](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/programm/ballett/), [concerts](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/programm/konzert/sinfoniekonzert/), [drama](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/programm/schauspiel/), [Young State Theater](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/programm/junges_staatstheater/) ** and **[Digital Theater](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/programm/digitaltheater/) ** create a varied and diverse cultural offering on stage.
The State Theater is a state-funded institution whose mission is to make art and culture accessible to the population in accordance with the principles of a free and democratic society. It creates a space for exchange and discourse for all those interested in culture.
Over 900**[ events ](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/spielplan/september/)** per year take place in the four venues (Großes Haus, Kleines Haus, Studio, Insel), on guest performances, or in special locations around the city. The Badisches Staatstheater is a crowd puller in the city for the city. It shines beyond Karlsruhe as a beacon: regionally, nationally, and internationally. On average, over 275,000 visitors are welcomed to the theater each year. Over 700 employees and guest artists from 48 countries work at the Staatstheater. As a **[major employer](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/service/karriere/arbeiten/)** in the region, the multi-disciplinary theater brings together over 100 **[unusual professions](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/service/karriere/ausbildung/)** under one roof and offers a creative and international working environment in the heart of Karlsruhe. The repertoire company enables systematic, sustainable work while also providing space for innovation. A central concern is to be open to all age groups, social classes, and, above all, cultures in terms of programming, audience, and staff.
The State Theater sees itself as an interface between society, art, and politics and networks with other cultural institutions in Karlsruhe and the surrounding area. As a **[member of several European opera and theater organizations](https://www.staatstheater.karlsruhe.de/service/netzwerke/)**, the State Theater also has an international network.
