Kleines Theater, Theatre venue in Friedenau, Germany.
The Kleines Theater is a performance venue in the Friedenau area with 93 seats arranged to give viewers a close view of the stage. The intimate design creates a direct connection between the performers and audience members in this small residential setting.
The theater opened in 1973 and quickly became known for hosting premiere performances of new plays in Berlin. Over the decades, it established itself as a venue dedicated to bringing literary works and emerging scripts to audiences.
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.
