Theater in Cronenberg, Performance venue in Cronenberg district, Wuppertal, Germany

Theater in Cronenberg is a theatre in the Cronenberg district of Wuppertal, housed in the former Borner Schule, a school building erected in 1831. It has four stages with 70 to 99 seats each and stages around 300 performances a year.

The Theater in Cronenberg was founded in 1986 in the former Borner Schule, a school building erected in 1831 near the centre of Cronenberg, as part of a communication centre. It opened on 28 February 1986 under director Ronald F. Stürzebecher with Lope de Vega's "Der Ritter vom Mirakel", initially called Theater in der Borner Schule (TIBS). The name was changed after one year, and since late 2007 the house has been run as a non-profit limited company.

The theatre's name changed from Theater in der Borner Schule (TIBS) to Theater in Cronenberg after its first year. Its programme centres on boulevard, satirical and small musical productions as well as work for children and young people, alongside classical and serious repertoire. The TiC-Club, founded in 1988, supports the house, and since 2008 it has run theatre courses for children, teenagers and adults.

The theatre occupies the former Borner Schule building near Cronenberg's centre, with four stages seating 70 to 99 people each. Around 300 performances a year draw roughly 25,000 visitors, so seats for well-known productions go early. Theatre courses for children, teenagers and adults have been offered since 2008.

The theatre occupies the former Borner Schule, a school building erected in 1831, so the 1986 founding happened inside a structure already 155 years old. Its first season opened on 28 February 1986 with Lope de Vega's Der Ritter vom Mirakel, directed by Ronald F. Stürzebecher.
