Dear Non-German Speaking Audience – Welcome!

For our multilingual and international audiences, as well as residents from abroad and visitors to Zurich from across the globe, the Schauspielhaus Zürich offers a special service: many performances at the Pfauen and the Schiffbau feature surtitles in English, French or Italian.
