It's a huge theatre, probably the main theater in Vienna, the interior looks great, I went for Die Verlorene Ehre der Katharina Blum. It was ok, with interesting staging and good actors, but I wasn't impressed. Also, it didn't feel cosy, perhaps because the theatre is quite large and poshy

One of the prettiest buildings in Vienna. Located near many more gems of this city, it stands for it own beauty and shines the spirit of the artists who built it; as the god of the light himself on top of it, Apollo depicts.

Sure its a beautiful building, but it does look a lot alike many other buildings in Vienna. In other words its nice but not remarkable. Chances are you won't remember much about it the day after you have visited it.

Had an outstanding experience inside. The theater is huge and beautiful (was actually my first time inside one such theatre in Europe). I went for Akram Khan Dance company’s Thikra. Had an IMAX level experience with the sound!

The architecture is amazing. The Klimt’s and other two artists’ paintings on the ceiling are gorgeous. More importantly we had a very informative and generous tour all around the place. We visited the back stage, stage, rehearsal rooms and got lots of info about Viennese Theatre.

The Burgtheater was opened in 1741. After the WWII, the theater was rebuilt between 1953 and 1955.

Just opposite City Hall, you can find the Imperial Court Theatre (Burgtheater). The theatre opened its doors in 1741 and has since been a focal point in Austrian culture. To this day it is the most important German-language theatre and is known to locals simply as “die Burg”. No less than three of Mozart’s operas premiered here.

Yeah, just the best! Its a beautiful and historic theater, did u know that the frescos were painted by the Klimt brothers? Yes, thats right, Gustav had a brother who unfortunately died young. Anyways, this is supposed to be a review for Burgtheater and not for Klimt;). I started to appreciate Burgtheater after the company I used to work for started a sponsorship withthe theater, since then I have been on their newsletter and regularly go to shows and also their concerts 'Die Toten Hosen' were absolutely fantastic and its such a rare and unusual location for such a concert, this is whats so great about the Burgtheater, its different, modernbut still traditional.

The former Imperial Court Theatre, another beautiful piece of history and if you love performance arts. This is the place. However, I didn't get a chance to watch any. Too little time and too many sight need to hit.
