Magnificent cabaret theatre in the Hackesche Hofe
Noteworthy for: This is probably the closest thing Berlin has to the original cabaret clubs of the 1930s.
This stunning old-style vaudeville theatre is located within the popular Hackesche Hofe courtyard complex. It hosts all kinds of dance, film and cabaret shows in a huge Art Nouveau hall that's worth the entrance fee alone.
Dozens of intimate little tables fill the floor space, where guests can dine while they watch the show, and the bar is always well-stocked. The theatre has a moveable stage and a lot of performance space, so it's perfect for the kind of anything-goes production that Berlin is famous for from fire-dancing and illusionists, to lion tamers and mime.
In warmer months, you can simply enjoy drinks in the courtyard outside. Marvel at the beautiful architecture the Hackesche Hofe is famous for, and get a real sense of how the area felt back in its artistic heyday.
