Theater Casino Zug

Under the motto ‘Myths’, the theatre will present a diverse programme in the 2025/2026 season that takes up stories, legends and narratives and reinterprets them. National and international guest performances, in-house productions and co-productions in the fields of drama, music, dance, nouveau cirque and young theatre invite you to exciting cultural encounters.  Accompanying themed talks invite the audience to discuss the power and significance of myths. Browse through the theatre and concert programme, secure your tickets and look forward to cultural highlights.

Incidentally, the Theater Casino Zug was built in 1909 by Dagobert Keiser and Richard Bracher and is the hub of Zug's cultural life. The current renovation has breathed new life into the old glamour.

A look back shows that Zug has a long theatre tradition: the first records of public performances with over 3,000 spectators date back to the 17th century. In 1782/83, a permanent theatre was established at the expense of the city. The modest ‘Comoedi-Haus’ was located on the first floor above the old city butcher's shop, today's police station on Kolinplatz. In 1808, the private ‘Theatergesellschaft Zug’ was founded, which is still active today as the Theater- und Musikgesellschaft Zug (tmgz).

The Theater Casino Zug is continuing this tradition with its 2025/2026 season and invites its audience to experience the power of myths on stage.
