Berlin continues to feed into the rich cultural traditions that are well manifested in its booming theatres and cultural centres. The city’s dramatic arts represent a big chunk of German history from the enlightenment, through the great wars, and until today. One of Berlin theatre’s iconic figures is Bertolt Brecht, a playwright who moved to East Berlin from Hollywood to establish the Berliner Ensemble. He and his wife, Helen Wiegel, became the figurehead of the greatest German theatre group in the post-war era. The ensemble’s first great production is Mouther Courage, which is a story of survival relevant to the post war era. Max Reinhardt is another influential figure in the Berlin theatre scene. He set up the famous Kammerspiele and also produced plays for the Berliner Ensemble.

Today, these figures are remembered as the pillars of the vibrant and modern Berlin theatre scene. Berlin dramas are known for the philosophies inspired by the city’s division into West Berlin and East Berlin. The interplay and dynamics of these different approaches pave the way for a deep theatre culture that all Berliners continue to appreciate.

The Deutsches Theatre or the Kammerspiele des Deutschen Theatres was built in the 19th century. It has its own drama company that produces plays covering a wide range of topics. They also make sure that they appeal to a mass audience, while they play German classics like Doktor Caligari and Lessing’s Emilia Galotti. The Deutsches Theatre is still one of the most sought after drama companies in the city.

The Maxim Gorki Theatre was also built in the 19th century, and despite its grand theatre architecture, the diminutive interior suggests a very intimate approach to drama production. Most of the productions here deal with current subjects, which are something that Berliners and tourists can relate to. Their writing is known as witty, funny, slick, and on point. Budding German playwrights are showcased in this theatre, so you will always have something to watch out for.

One theatre that does not only appeal to the masses, but lived to stage people’s struggles is the Volkbuhne. Established in 1914, this theatre was born from the grassroots movement living in a defeated Germany after World War I. Its plays can magically find the heart of the issue that affects all German sectors of society and transform it into something that the audience can understand. Part of the reason for the success of the theatre is the paradoxical view of the German status quo which most of the time appeals to the audience. Their plays, like other theatre groups in Germany, hope to bring serious issues to the centre of discussion and spark debate among its audience.

Berlin theatres undoubtedly experienced their peak with Bertolt Brechte. Although some say that Berlin drama is eager for another Brechte, the roster of drama and plays that you find every night will continue to be a force and an attraction not only for the locals, but for tourists as well. It is hard to find a worthwhile theatre production in English though, but if you have some knowledge of German, you might just as well enjoy it. It takes a lot of awareness to appreciate these dramas to the fullest. If you want to experience German high art, this is probably what you need.
