Wintergarten Berlin: Variety & Dinner under the starry sky

The “most beautiful vaudeville theater in Europe”, “a jewel of vaudeville”, and “probably Berlin’s most beautiful theater space” in these superlatives the press speaks of the beauty of the house. As soon as you enter the Wintergarten Berlin, you are drawn into another world by the magnificent setting of the variety theater. Dark velvet, noble wood, and the unique starry sky create an atmosphere as it was known in the glamorous 1920s. Leave your everyday life outside the door and enjoy an evening with a lot of chic and that certain something. Show, music, vaudeville – entertaining, charming, and varied. Whether Meret Becker or the Tiger Lillies, whether Max Raabe or Eckart von Hirschhausen, whether newcomers or international stars of the vaudeville scene: the world meets here in the unique atmosphere of mirrors, noble wood, dark red velvet, and the legendary starry sky.

JOSEPHINE – The Queen of Entertainment

Running time: 21.08.24 – 23.02.25

Duration: approx. 160 min. incl. interval

With the show “JOSEPHINE – The Queen of Entertainment”, Wintergarten pays tribute to a unique artist – stage star, activist, and freedom fighter.

Born in America, the cosmopolitan Josephine Baker is still an icon and style-setting role model for generations of artists worldwide. Women’s rights activist, entrepreneur, trailblazer – many attributes still resonate in her name today.

Above all, however, Josephine Baker was an exceptional entertainer – she played a decisive role in shaping our understanding of entertainment today. She loved the stage and the audience loved her.

The Wintergarten places this love at the center of its new production – committed to its philosophy with the exciting, diverse stylistic devices of vaudeville:

Together with the fabulous singers Nicolle Rochelle and Alice Francis, who, accompanied live by a fantastic band, alternately interpret the wonderful international chansons of the black diva, Europe’s most renowned variety theater invites you on a musical-artistic journey through the decades – from the Roaring Twenties to the vibrant Seventies.

Jazz, electro-swing, and contemporary pop interpretations, combined with dance and of course – how could it be otherwise at the Wintergarten – the outstanding skills of the internationally cast top artists promise an entertaining evening that will amaze you.

In the opulent stage set, they sing, tap dance, juggle with their feet, and balance on their hands until the show stairs glow…

Changeable video screens, confusing black light, glittering disco balls, and elaborately produced, magnificent costumes with up to 1000 peacock feathers turn the new revue at the Wintergarten into a furious variety festival – which Josephine Baker would certainly have enjoyed.

Long live vaudeville – curtain up… for JOSEPHINE!
