... music, dance, and theater have a significant importance in the canton of Lucerne: The Lucerne Festival and the Jazz Festival Willisau are music events with international recognition. The Luzern Theater with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra, the Operetta Sursee, the Zwischenbühne Horw, the Kleintheater Luzern, and the Rathausbühne Willisau enliven the Central Swiss theater, dance, and music theater scenes. At venues like the Schüür, the Neubad, and the Musikkampus Südpol, young, alternative, and innovative artists find their audience. The Central and University Library Lucerne reflects the diversity of the performing arts with a rich collection of books and media covering established, popular, and alternative forms of performative art.
