Discover the Berliner Ensemble!

We bring history to life: We take you behind the scenes of the Berliner Ensemble as part of an AR theater tour and give you special insights into the eventful past and present of the Theater am Schiffbauerdamm. Actress Katharina Thalbach accompanies you as the narrator, who appeared here for the first time more than 50 years ago.

With the help of augmented reality, you can use your smartphone or tablet to go on an individual tour of discovery through the theater: Find out more about Helene Weigel and Bertolt Brecht or the exciting premiere of the "Threepenny Opera" here on Schiffbauerdamm.

There are a total of five stations, you determine the order yourself: You can move from Bertolt-Brecht-Platz via the inner courtyard and the box office foyer to the historic theater hall. A special secret is hidden behind each station.

You are right in the middle of everyday theater life with your smartphone and open doors to rooms and workshops that are otherwise inaccessible to the public: Explore 3D scans of our props workshop or the costume store, among other things, and reveal the secret of our revolving stage.

Immerse yourself in this extraordinary AR experience and get to know the Berliner Ensemble from completely new perspectives!

The tour is in German, we recommend using headphones. You can only experience the station in the hall with a ticket for a performance.
