Torturmtheater Sommerhausen — 2026 Season
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — Torturmtheater
In 2025, the Torturmtheater Sommerhausen faced a generational change. The transitional season offered a mix of premieres, revivals, and concerts in the format for which the venue has been known for decades: extremely intimate, with direct contact between stage and audience, in the medieval gate tower on Sommerhausen's town wall.
Visitors in 2025 found in Sommerhausen the Franconian wine village between Würzburg and Ochsenfurt — a symbiosis of theatre, art (numerous galleries), and Franconian Silvaner wine. Preparations for the new 2026 season under the new directorship ran parallel to the ongoing performances.
