In addition to providing an overview of the performances scheduled for the season, the booklets relate the history of the theater, from its earliest beginnings in the 1580s. The program describes the theater's beginning as a venue for traveling troupes and continued to serve as home of the famous Haupt- und Staataktionen (a mixture of drama—primarily tragedy—and improvisatory theater) in the beginning of the 18th century. At the turn of the twentieth century the theater was updated to comply with new safety regulations. Since 1903 it resumed its activity with performances of classical works like those of Goethe, Schiller, and Lessing, alongside contemporary works such as those of Heinrich Mann and Lion Feuchtwanger, who both emigrated to the United States after Hitler's ascension to power.
