Französisches Komödienhaus
The Französisches Komödienhaus or French Comedy House, was a theater in Berlin, active between 1774 and 1801. Prior to 1742, Berlin was visited by travelling theater companies but had no permanent theater, until an opera house was founded by Frederick the Great that year. The opera house was only used by Italian opera performers, and there were plans to found a theater house for French language stage actors as well. A German language theater house, Döbbelinsches Theater, was active in the city from 1764, but French theater was the fashion and preferred by the monarch. The plans where finally realized in 1774 and the French theater was inaugurated in 1776. The French theater was primarily frequented by the nobility and royal court and much favored by the king. While its main rival, the German language Döbbelinsches Theater, was given no financial support at all by the king, he financed the French theater to great costs. In 1786, the successor of Frederick the Great, Frederic ...

Frederick William II Of Prussia
Frederick William II (german: Friedrich Wilhelm II.; 25 September 1744 – 16 November 1797) was King of Prussia from 1786 until his death in 1797. He was in personal union the Prince-elector of Brandenburg and (via the Orange-Nassau inheritance of his grandfather) sovereign prince of the Canton of Neuchâtel. Pleasure-loving and indolent, he is seen as the antithesis to his predecessor, Frederick the Great. (Frederick II). Under his reign, Prussia was weakened internally and externally, and he failed to deal adequately with the challenges to the existing order posed by the French Revolution.

Theatres Completed In 1774
Theatre or theater is a collaborative form of performing art that uses live performers, usually actors or actresses, to present the experience of a real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place, often a stage. The performers may communicate this experience to the audience through combinations of gesture, speech, song, music, and dance. Elements of art, such as painted scenery and stagecraft such as lighting are used to enhance the physicality, presence and immediacy of the experience. The specific place of the performance is also named by the word "theatre" as derived from the Ancient Greek θέατρον (théatron, "a place for viewing"), itself from θεάομαι (theáomai, "to see", "to watch", "to observe"). Modern Western theatre comes, in large measure, from the theatre of ancient Greece, from which it borrows technical terminology, classification into genres, and many of its themes, stock characters, and plot elements.
