Haber directed his only movie in 2003 with Scacco pazzo.
He is also a distinguished theatre actor, having performed amongst others in Orgia by Pier Paolo Pasolini, Woyzeck by Georg Büchner, L'avaro by Molière, Zio Vania by Anton Chekhov, Dialogo by Natalia Ginzburg and Arlecchino by Carlo Goldoni.
He has been touring theatres since 2006 with Tango d'amore e di coltelli, with musics by Ástor Piazzolla on a text by Jorge Luis Borges.
He has won three Nastro d'Argento, one David di Donatello, one Premio Gassman, one Premio IDI and one theatre critics' award.

In June, 2011 Haber attempted to kiss actress Lucia Lavia onstage during a rehearsal for "Othello" at the Teatro Romano di Verona. She responded by slapping him and he immediately slapped her back while accusing her of being "cold." After the intervention of both their lawyers, the theater forced Haber to leave the production and he was replaced by Franco Branciaroli.
