The Münchner Kammerspiele are one of the leading theaters in the German-speaking world and stand for bold, contemporary theatrical art.
With a diverse ensemble and over 300 employees, they bring socially relevant topics to the stage and develop new artistic forms – often through long-term, international collaborations.
As the „theater of the city,“ they are closely connected to Munich’s history and present, and are committed to democracy, diversity, and openness.
Since their founding, they have shaped cultural life as a place of renewal, dialogue, and aesthetic innovation.
The Münchner Kammerspiele have been a project partner of KINO ASYL since 2016 – and for many years have celebrated outstanding festival openings on their stages.
