The 10 best children's theatres in Berlin

Puppet theatre, children's opera, theatre from the very start: Berlin's stage scene for children is as varied as the city itself. Thanks to the musical "Linie 1", the GRIPS Theater in Tiergarten is the city's best-known children's theatre and a flagship across Germany. With three stages, the THEATER AN DER PARKAUE in Lichtenberg is the largest state theatre for young people in Germany, and the Schaubude Berlin in Prenzlauer Berg, with its puppet and object theatre, is one of the most important venues of all. The Komische Oper for children and the ATZE Musiktheater in Wedding also whisk the little ones away into exciting worlds of sound. From the big musical to the tiny theatre for two-year-olds, there is something for every age. Which show will it be for your family?

When putting this list together, I paid attention to the whole range, from the big musical to the intimate stage for the very youngest. What mattered to me was showing venues that work with genuine commitment and take children of every age seriously. That way, every family finds the right theatre experience here, whether the child is just two or already twelve.
