Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz
Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz, Performance theater in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, Germany.
The Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz features two main performance halls, with Hall A accommodating 428 seats and Hall B holding 367 seats.
Built in 1928 as a cinema with Bauhaus elements by architect Erich Mendelsohn, the building transformed into a theater venue in the late 1970s.
Under Thomas Ostermeier's direction since 1999, the theater presents experimental productions and collaborates with international directors from Switzerland and Britain.
The theater operates Monday through Saturday from 11:00 AM to 6:30 PM and Sundays from 3:00 PM to 6:30 PM, with ticket prices ranging from 6 to 38 euros.
The venue underwent acoustic improvements with sound-transparent ceilings and new sidewalls to enhance sound quality for both performers and audiences.

Art Deco shaped cities from the early 1920s through the late 1930s. The style combines geometric patterns, metallic surfaces, and decorative ornament with functional architecture. Buildings display characteristic vertical lines, stepped forms, and symmetrical facades. The Chrysler Building in New York and Marine Building in Vancouver demonstrate the height and elegance of the style in skyscrapers. The Palais de Tokyo in Paris and Museum of Applied Arts in Budapest show its cultural applications. The Hoover Building in London and Daily Express Building in Manchester represent commercial architecture of the era. Cincinnati Union Terminal, Warner Theatre in Washington, and Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles document the style's popularity in public buildings. The reach extended worldwide. Edificio Bacardi in Havana, Kavanagh building in Buenos Aires, and New India Assurance Building in Mumbai show regional interpretations. Villa Empain and Stoclet Palace in Brussels, Municipal House in Prague, Tokyo Metropolitan Teien Art Museum, and Universum Kino in Berlin document European and Asian presence. Tiong Bahru Estate in Singapore demonstrates the application to residential developments. The Miami Design Preservation League preserves one of the largest concentrations of Art Deco buildings in the United States. This collection includes public, private, and commercial structures that document the movement's international influence.
