The Theater Drehleier is a cabaret stage in Munich. It was founded in 1976 by Beppi Bachmair, Uwe Kleinschmidt and Werner Winkler at Balanstraße 23 and managed together. Werner Winkler soon took over the management on his own responsibility. The hurdy-gurdy got its name from the musical instrument of the same name, which is made by Wolfram Kunkel, a musician and friend of Werner Winkler. When the owner of the building carried out extensive renovation measures in 1997, the hurdy-gurdy had to move to Rosenheimer Strasse 123. In 2021, Manuela Hoffmann, Werner Winkler's long-time collaborator, took over the management of the Drehleier Theatre.
