Theatre, Comedy, Music and Dance
Dusseldorf is full of culture. The theatre is at the Schauspielhaus,
the opera and ballet is staged at the Deutsche Oper am Rhein, variety
at the Juta, Classical music at the Ton Halle, and modern dance
at the Tanzhaus NRW and puppet theatres at the Dusseldorf Marionetten
Theater. The famous circus, run by Roncalli is at the Apollo Variete
below the Rheinknie bridge. Political cabaret is staged at the Kommadchen.
Cinema
German Paradiso atmosphere with old fashioned decor can be found
at Black Box, Lichtburg, Metropol, Bambi, Cinema, and Souterrain
which is also called Muggel. These cinemas also host classical films
also. Cineplexes are at the main station and at the harbour and
they offer mainstream Hollywood films which are dubbed in German.
One can look out for a film in its original language by seeing the
film listed as (OmU) which means original with German subtitles.
Live Music
Dr. Jazz and Jazzschmeide are favourites for the Jazz scene. For
Folk music go to Buck Mulligan. Frontpage has live music, with the
likes of the German Sinatra, giving it his best. At Em Putzke the
Jazz bands will play for a few euros or namely in German slang,
a Heiermann, which is 5mark coin.
The Phillips Halle hosts concerts for big names like Lou Reed. The
Zakk hosts smaller concerts, mostly by local bands. The main tourist
information centre can be found at the Hauptbahnhof (main station),
and one can find a small booklet about what’s on in the city
in most of the trendy bars and cafes.
