Kleines Theater, Theatre venue in Friedenau, Germany.

The Kleines Theater is a chamber-play theatre at the corner of Südwestkorso and Taunusstraße in Berlin's Friedenau district. It occupies the building of the former Korso cinema, which had closed before the theatre was founded in 1973. The auditorium holds 99 seats, and a small bar stands at the rear of the seating area.

The Kleines Theater was founded in 1973 by Sabine Fromm in the corner building at Südwestkorso and Taunusstraße, after the cinema Korso that had operated there closed. In 2006, after 33 years, the direction changed for the first time: director Karin Bares took over both the artistic direction and the management, and she still stages productions there regularly.

The venue serves as a gathering place for locals who appreciate literary works brought to life on stage alongside musical performances. Residents view it as a space where contemporary stories and tributes find an audience within their neighborhood.

The venue is located at Sudwestkorso 65 in a residential neighborhood and includes a bar area for gathering before and after shows. The setting is walkable and welcoming for visitors who want to arrive early or linger after performances.

Under director Karin Bares, the programming emphasizes biographical stories that explore how individual lives intersect with contemporary historical questions. This focus on personal narratives means each season offers fresh explorations of history through human experience rather than broad historical overviews.
