Poetry Slam

Word art on Hamburg's stages.

Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

    Gaslight

    Patrick Hamilton's psychological thriller Gaslight is a chilling study in manipulation and madness. When Bella Manningham begins to doubt her memory and sanity, her husband Jack seems all too ready to confirm her fears. But as gaslights flicker and footsteps echo from empty rooms, a darker truth begins to surface. Set in Victorian London, this gripping classic inspired the term “gaslighting” and remains initially relevant today. In a tense atmosphere of suspicion and fear, Gaslight keeps audiences guessing until the final revelation. This new production at The English Theater of Hamburg combines period elegance with nail-biting suspense, plunging viewers into a world where nothing is as it seems, and one woman must find the strength to reclaim her truth before she loses everything.
