Theater
This beautiful old building is encased in modern glass, standing proudly on the river Spree in Friedrichshain. The tour boats usually point it out as they pass by: it's not only grand and gorgeous with its fabulous combination of old and new architecture, it's a hub of creative activity, founded and directed by Jochen Sandig in the mid 1990's.
The performance venue seats around 350 people. On the programme, you'll find music festivals, classical concerts, forums, and lots of wonderful activities for kids, particularly on weekends. You can even organize childcare in advance for younger family members for a minimal price. Ticket prices are very reasonable and the adjoining café bar has a wonderful terrace, perfect for kicking back in a deck chair after a concert in summer and watching life on the river.
