The Theater Trier is the municipal theatre of Trier, Rhineland-Palatinate, offering opera and musical, dance and drama. The company dates back to 1802. The current house was completed in 1964, and needs renovation. The director since 2018 is Manfred Rolf Langner.
Since 1995, the theatre has run a series of unknown operas, initiated by Heinz Lukas-Kindermann. It included world premieres such as Sarema by Zemlinsky, Die unendliche Geschichte by Siegfried Matthus, and Fausta by Heinz Heckmann. It also shows German premieres such as The Voyage by Philip Glass, revivals of neglected repertoire such as Merlin by Karl Goldmark, and Koanga by Frederick Delius.
