History:
The German theatre was opened in 1896 as a house for naturalistic-realistic speech theatre. In 1897 the change occurred in an institution for high entertainment theatre. In summer, 2008 the biggest guest performance theatre of Germany resettled on account of longer redevelopment measures in the parent company in the city centre in a spectacular action to Fröttmaning where it has found a worthy frame in Europe to the biggest cantilever tent construction to continue up to his return in Schwanthalerstrasse his about 100-year-old Traditon as a stage and ball-room of the inhabitants of Munich.

Short description:
In January and February the German theatre changes into the ball-room of the city of Munich.
