Did you know that Frankfurt (Oder) has a beautiful theater in the center of the city? Just a few steps from the Lenné Passagen you can find the modern building of the "Kleist Forum" well hidden behind some trees. This theater and its' related buildings offer a wide span of cultural events: plays, musical events, dance and concerts from all over Germany and even home productions.
In the Kleistforum is a bar called "DarstellBar" which means "representable". After an event you can wander with the swarm to this place, have a drink and chat about the play with the people surrounding you. I can really recommend it, since sometimes you even meet the actors or directors, who are mostly open to a good talk about their oeuvre. Now we will come to the really interesting part: the price! Yes, as a student you can receive a discount on selected plays! For further information just ask the people at the ticket counter, or click the link above, it will lead you to the company's website.
