The world is one giant theatre, and Berlin is one of its most beautiful stages. Large opera houses and show arenas lie next to small independent theatres, while traditional houses stand beside modern acting workshops. The many events in Berlin are so diverse, and their requirements for a suitable location are so varying, from the vast Arena to the large concert hall, from an open-air theatre to a small club cellar – every event here finds a fitting venue. Old factory buildings and modern lofts or even museums and a cloister ruin transform themselves into spectacular backdrops.
