About

Theaterhaus Frankfurt is a vibrant cultural hub dedicated to children’s and youth theater, offering a diverse program that inspires audiences of all ages. Founded in 1987 and located in the Fischerfeldviertel, the Theaterhaus has become one of Frankfurt’s most important stages for young audiences. Its repertoire ranges from imaginative puppet theater and fairy tales to contemporary dramas and comedies, designed for children as young as two and extending to teenagers, families, and schools. Resident ensembles such as the Theaterhaus Ensemble, TheaterGrueneSosse, and La Senty Menti bring fresh productions to life, while guest groups from around the world enrich the program during the annual international festival Starke Stücke. Beyond performances, the Theaterhaus emphasizes education and participation, offering workshops, discussions with artists, and guided tours that encourage young people to engage with theater as both spectators and creators. With its welcoming atmosphere, weekend family shows, and a cozy theater café, the venue has established itself as a place where art, play, and learning come together, making it a cornerstone of Frankfurt’s cultural landscape.
