People's Theater
Every autumn, the cultural office presents a new play by the "Itterbühne" theater group. The amateur actors make the audience laugh year after year with their comedies.
Most recently, to mark its 30th anniversary, the "Itterbühne" theater presented Christian Oberthaler's comedy "Topf sucht Deckel" over the weekend of October 2–4, 2026.
Professional theater on a small stage
The city of Hilden has been offering theater performances on a small stage at regular intervals since 2026. The Heinrich-Strangmeier-Saal in the Altes Helmholtz cultural and further education center at Gerresheimer Straße 20 is transformed into a theater hall and the first floor of the building into a theater foyer.
