Angels in the Wings
Every Great Show Needs a Little Heaven-Sent Help
Become an Angel in the Wings
With the return of the English Theatre Frankfurt to its home in the Gallileo Tower in February 2026, we are opening an exciting new chapter in our history—and we would love for you to be part of it.
In the theatre, “the wings” are the hidden, backstage spaces just out of the audience’s sight on the left and right sides of the stage. This is where the magic is held. It is where props are ready, costumes are changed, and actors wait in the dark, prepared to step into the light. The term “Angel” in theatre refers to a generous patron who provides the crucial financial backing needed to make a show happen.
We are currently developing new sponsorship opportunities and investment projects, from small initiatives to major improvements. Every contribution makes a difference.
By becoming an Angel in the Wings, you stand with us in the shadows. Unseen by the audience but absolutely essential to the performance, you provide the vital resources we need to make the magic happen—and help us shape the next 25 years of English-language theatre in Frankfurt.
With heartfelt thanks,
Daniel Nicolai
Artistic & Executive Director
