Rainer Werner Fassbinder

Famous prodigy of the New German Cinema, Fassbinder (1945–82) directed more than 40 films.
Richard Strauss

The composer (1864–1949) was born in Munich.
Schauburg

One of the most renowned stages for young people’s theatre yet equally enjoyable for adults. Set up in a converted cinema, Schauburg is celebrated for its innovative work with new theatrical forms.
Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz

Lovers of traditionally staged operas, operettas, and musicals will feel right at home in this intimate theatre. Built in 1865 as a bourgeois equivalent to the royal theatre houses, it has remained a popular venue to this day.
Tam S-Theater

You’ll find the TamS in a rear courtyard in the heart of Schwabing. Founded in 1970 by Philip Arp, it gained fame with his Valentinaden evenings, which continued the tradition of the great comedian and his droll and scurrilous humour. TramS continues to stage unusual and paradoxical productions.
TeamTheater

Teamtheater Tankstelle is the name of the larger stage, and Teamtheater Comedy is its smaller sister. Enjoy the spectacle on stage while savouring culinary delights.
Theater 44

This intimate space in Schwabing is home to Munich’s oldest, privately operated theatre. Close proximity to the actors ensures that patrons enjoy a special experience.
Theater im Fraunhofer

This down-to-earth pub offers not only hearty Bavarian treats but also a small stage for music, cabaret, and satire in the back.
Weiß Ferdl

Ferdinand Weisheitinger (1883–1949) was artistic director of the Am Platzl cabaret for 20 years.
Werkstattkino

This cinema, tucked away in the basement of a rear courtyard building is dedicated to films beyond the mainstream.
