Copenhagen Stage in Copenhagen

The program spans new Danish writing, international productions and physical theatre, many shows carrying English surtitles for non-Danish speakers.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

CPH Stage's defining feature is its scattered, city-wide structure: more than thirty venues take part, from Teater Grob and Badteatret, a theatre built inside a boat, up to the grand stages of the Royal Danish Theatre, so attending the festival means moving across the city rather than staying inside one site

02

The mystery stays covered

Physical theatre and dance works, which rely on movement rather than dialogue, require no translation and give non-Danish speakers full access alongside the surtitled spoken productions

03

The city starts moving

The range of participating venues, from national flagship stages to tiny independent black-box rooms, means production scale and ticket price vary widely within a single festival pass
