Since 1996 she has taught lieder at the Otto-Falckenberg School in Munich, and currently also at the Zurich University of the Arts and the Ernst Busch Academy of Dramatic Arts in Berlin. Parallel to her concert programmes, Georgette Dee has appeared in numerous theatre productions since 1983, including Robert Wilson's Berliner Ensemble (Shakespeare's Sonnets), Olga Neuwirth's National Theatre Mannheim (The Outcast) and also at the Schauspielhaus Hannover, Hebbel Theatre Berlin, Schauspiel Frankfurt, Regensburg Theatre and Stadttheater Konstanz in various plays.
