Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden has announced a new seating capacity, which has been approved by the authorities of the city of Wiesbaden.

Per the new hygiene concept devised by the authorities, up to 298 spectators will be allowed into the Big House of the Staatstheater Wiesbaden. Up to 77 spectators will be allowed into the Small House of the theater.

The new seating plan has been arranged in such a way that the minimal social distance of 1.5 meters is maintained at all times, and in all directions. This plan corresponds to the current state rules regarding social distancing.

Staatstheater Wiesbaden previously canceled performances from Sep. 25 – Sep. 27, 2020, as it did not comply with the state requirements.
