Wageningen's theatre since 1880
Theatre in Wageningen started in 1880, when a building for concerts, theatre and gatherings opened in the middle of a park. The old Schouwburg on this spot burned down in October 1948; the current theatre on Plantsoen 3 in Wageningen opened in 1951.
In 2020 Junushoff celebrated its 140th anniversary. It is still the town's stage: cabaret, music, dance and youth shows, with Wageningen schoolchildren appearing alongside national acts.
The building holds two halls with their own foyers: the 697-seat Grote Zaal with its balcony and the 196-place flat-floor Kleine Zaal, plus a Theatercafé and meeting rooms.
