FIGURE IT OUT 2026
September 10 till 13, 2026
Conference and Showcase for Figure Theater
Aesthetics of Access
Aesthetics of Access
“FIGURE IT OUT” travels between Berlin, Leipzig and Stuttgart each year and provides a platform for current developments in puppet theater. The edition in September 2026 will present productions that look for inclusive forms of expression in tandem with puppets and objects and that integrate the tools of accessibility in their aesthetic: alongside guest performances from France, the Czech Republic, and Berlin, “invisible”, the new in-house production of Schaubude Berlin for blind, visually impaired and sighted children ages 4 and up will be premiered. The performances are accompanied by audience talks providing deeper insight into the respective working methods. A one-day symposium presenting the artistic strategies and experiences of the participating artists in a practical format completes the program.
We offer early boarding for the performances “La Langue des Cygnes” and “Hrdinky?!”. Early boarding is a service for visitors with visible and non-visible disabilities. It allows them to enter the auditorium ten minutes before the official admission, giving them time to get accustomed to the space and choose a suitable seat.
The performances “A hole in the air and everywhere” and “invisible” include integrated artistic audio description in German.
The workshop “Wurzeln: Versuche mit dem Unsichtbaren” is aimed at blind, visually impaired and sighted colleagues and will take place in German Language.
We offer a pickup service for blind and visually impaired people from nearby public transport stations.
Please register for the touch tours and the pickup service by 4 pm on the previous day. Registration takes place after ticket purchase via email at ticket@schaubude.berlin or by phone at +49 30 4234314.
Assistance dogs are permitted.
The performances “La Langue des Cygnes” and “Hrdinky?!” work with Sign Language. A German Sign Language interpreter will be available before and after the performances to assist visitors as needed. Audience talks will be interpreted into German Sign Language, and questions can also be asked in German Sign Language.
The workshops “Krump with Signs” and “Communication without Words” are aimed at Deaf and hearing colleagues.
The performance “La Langue des Cygnes” features English and German surtitles.
Tickets are available at our box office as well as in our online shop. As the website of our ticketing provider is only partially accessible, it is also possible to reserve tickets, including wheelchair spaces with an accompanying seat, by phone at +49 30 4234314 or by email at ticket@schaubude.berlin.
Our ticketing service (from 18 August 2026) is available Tuesday to Friday from 10:00 to 13:00, as well as one hour before the performance begins.
