Notes on Accessibility

Tickets and wheelchair spaces
Tickets are available at our box office and in our online store. As the website of our ticket provider is barrier-free only to a limited extent, it is possible to book tickets as well as wheelchair spaces with an accompanying seat by phone on 030 4234314 or by e-mail to ticket@schaubude.berlin. For performances at the weekend, bookings must be received by 16:00 on the previous Friday.

People with severe disabilities receive tickets at a reduced price. People with severe disabilities who are dependent on an escort will receive a free ticket for them.

Digital Accessibility
In accordance with the Berlin Accessible Information and Communication Technology Act (BIKTG Bln) and EU Directive 2016/2102, public sector bodies are required to make their websites and mobile applications accessible. According to the latest audit report issued by the Berlin Monitoring Body for Digital Accessibility, the website of Schaubude Berlin at www.schaubude.berlin is currently „not / partially accessible.“ We are developing an action plan to address the identified issues and to progressively improve the accessibility of our digital services.

Accessibility on site
The foyer is accessible without steps through two double-wing, non-motorised doors (width: 150 cm), which are open for admission. The box office is located immediately to the right in the entrance area. The bar (counter height: 120 cm) is straight ahead. The Schaubude Berlin features a tactile guidance system in the foyer that leads to the box office, the bar, the restrooms, and the auditorium. A drinks menu in Braille is available.

Admission
The entrance to the hall is via a staircase with 6 steps with handrails on both sides.

For people with walking difficulties, access is at ground level via the stage entrance. Please come to the theatre foyer and our staff will escort you from there into the auditorium. Guide dogs for the blind can be brought along.

WCs
Gender-neutral WCs are located behind the red doors that open outwards. Access is via two staircases with handrails on both sides and a total of 11 steps. The sanitary facilities consist of an anteroom with several washbasins and WC cubicles leading off to the left and right.

Access to the barrier-free WC is on the left side of the theatre hall. Access is through two non-motorised doors (width: 88 cm). The light switches on automatically via a motion sensor.

Accessibility of individual productions
More detailed information on special requirements for the audience, the seating situation, possible content triggers and sensory stimuli can be found under the announcement texts of the individual productions from about two weeks before the first performance.
