Music Theatre Linz

The music theater in Linz combines a cultural monument with one of the largest revolving stages in the world.

The revolving stage with a diameter of 32 meters is the heart of the theater and represents a remarkable feat of stage technology that only a few providers worldwide can achieve.

Several simultaneous scenes on the main stage enable quick and effective transformations of the stage set to amaze the audience. The state-of-the-art stage technology meets the high demands of the Musiktheater Linz and enables the stage set to be changed quickly.

The upper stage machinery comprises 43 hoists of 500 kg each and 8 hoists of 1,000 kg each. In addition to the revolving stage, 3 double-deck platforms of 15 metres each were also installed in the lower stage machinery. The revolving stage is one of the largest ever installed in a theatre, as it has a diameter of 32m. Another special feature of this revolving stage is that a small revolving stage (Ø 15 m) and the 3 double-deck platforms are integrated into it.
Surprise effects for the audience can be achieved using various stage technology options, e.g. sloping stages and steps for choir concerts or trap lifts.

With the completion of the Music Theater, the Linz Landestheater now operates three stages, with the large auditorium seating almost 1,000 spectators in repertoire mode.
