Friedrichsbau (Stuttgart)

After the Allied bombing raid in the night of July 25–26, 1944, the Friedrichsbau burned down completely.

In the 1920s and 1930s, international stars such as Grock, Josephine Baker, Charlie Rivel, Karl Valentin and Marita Gründgens performed at the Friedrichsbau Theater.

[1] Under the directorship of Emil Neidhard, Willy Reichert took over the artistic direction of the theater when it reopened.

The Swabian characters Häberle and Pfleiderer, embodied by both of them, are closely connected with the Friedrichsbau Theater.

Since January 1, 2014, Friedrichsbau Theater has been a non-profit company run by managing directors Gabriele Frenzel and Timo Steinhauer.

In addition to recurring guest performances, up to four in-house productions are staged annually.
