What's on in English?
The short answer is: not a lot. The longer answer would explain how most films that are shown in Germany are dubbed into German. This means that you're going to hear Clint Eastwood speaking German - this can be quite disconcerting. Luckily, for those of us who like to see films in their original form, there are some cinemas that show films in English with German subtitles. See the cinema section for more details.
Theatre is almost exclusively in German but there are some exceptions. You'll need to keep your eyes on the local press to see when these English productions are on.
Live music is often available at different venues in Munich. When you arrive in Munich ask at your hotel for a local newspaper or events guide to see what's on during your stay.
