The small but exquisite Schlosspark Theater in Steglitz offers an entertaining program over Easter 2025.

At Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin-Mitte, the French Cathedral stands as one of the most beautiful concert venues in the capital. The acoustics of the historic church hall carry Vivaldi, Bach, and Chopin as if they had been composed specifically for it. History, sound, and a touch of grandeur under one roof.




On New Year's Eve 2017, the most famous TV sketch Dinner for One will be performed in its very own theatre version at Brotfabrik!

In Weißensee, where Pankow and Prenzlauer Berg meet, the Brotfabrik at Caligariplatz has existed for over 35 years as one of the last multi-genre venues of Berlin's independent scene. Anyone looking for improv theatre in Berlin will sooner or later end up here: The stage is home to two improv ensembles that regularly draw the audience actively into the play.

Charlottenburg's oldest private theater right on Ku'damm: Since 1949, the Vagantenbühne has stood for socially critical spoken theater with a stance that remains close to people. With just 90 seats, a closeness between stage and audience is created that large venues rarely offer.

Since 2016, Raketos Improv Theatre in Prenzlauer Berg has stood for sophisticated improv theatre of the highest caliber. The Berlin ensemble performs long-form formats at BühnenRausch, bringing Shakespeare, dystopias, and horror into the spotlight. No script, no rehearsals, no two evenings are alike.



Since 1985, the Mehringhof-Theater in Kreuzberg has stood for political cabaret with conviction. Whoever takes to the stage here has something to say, whether established stars or aspiring newcomers. The small venue on Gneisenaustraße is one of the most reliable addresses in the German-speaking cabaret scene.

Since 2007, the Foxys have been considered long-form specialists in Berlin's improv theatre scene. In Friedrichshain's Theatrepool, dramas, comedies, and chamber plays are created spontaneously night after night, knowing no script or rehearsal. Spontaneity at the highest level.


The Berliner Kinder Theater offers two major family theatre series in summer and winter.

The Renaissance Theater in Charlottenburg is Berlin's most beautiful private stage: Europe's only fully preserved Art Deco theater has focused for decades on international contemporary drama, prominent performers, and a program that thinks socially without ever forgetting the fun.


In the heart of Pankow, on Florastraße, the "Zimmer 16" theatre is full of surprises: a cabaret stage where the improv theatre group "Im Freien Fall" performs completely freely and without a script every first Friday of the month. The audience decides what happens.






Small, but with real substance: The Zebrano Theater in Friedrichshain stands for Berlin cabaret and variety arts in the most intimate setting. Chanson, slam poetry, and literary theater alternate, while renowned artists transform the tiny stage at Ostkreuz into one of the city's most charming venues.

The Berlin Crime Theatre in Friedrichshain is Berlin's only stage entirely dedicated to crime and thriller genres. Since 2000, it has been performing in the historic Umspannwerk Ost, where Agatha Christie appears alongside Sebastian Fitzek. Black humor and true theatrical art come together here.


A small theater for the very young, from 2 years old! The tiny Theater o. N. in family-rich Prenzlauer Berg stands out primarily by pursuing the concept of 'Theater from the very beginning'.


The fairy tale evenings of the Grashüpfer Puppet Theater by the fire in the yurt in Treptower Park in Berlin are now legendary. They are aimed at older children, teenagers, and adults.


Every Friday at 8 PM improv theater and every Monday at 10 PM a free party with a buffet – these are two program highlights at Alte Kantine on the Kulturbrauerei grounds.

For over 90 years, the Komödie am Kurfürstendamm has been considered one of the best addresses for sophisticated entertainment theater throughout Germany. The theater has now moved to the Schiller Theater for a transitional period.
