The Court Theatre is actually part of the museum exhibition, since the public has free access to walk around the theater building. The auditorium is also used for various events such as readings, lectures, concerts and small guest acting. Television program such as Det Nye Talkshow - med Anders Lund Madsen is broadcast live from the Court Theatre.[2]
