Premiere

At the centre of the new show produced by BAR JEDER VERNUNFT you will find the music of a man who with his band – and with his unmistakable, high voice – gave the endless repertoire of pop music numerous hits. We are talking about Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons.   “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore”, “Bye Bye Baby (Baby Goodbye)”, “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” und “Grease” are only a...

Florian Paul and ‘die Kapelle der letzten Hoffnung’ (The Choir of Last Resort) tell their stories in strong, vivid pictures that remain in the memory for some time. Somewhere between nostalgia and inquisitiveness, between the waltz and punk rock, between pop and chanson there are songs about the fear of being lonely, about remorse, jealousy and the comfort of remembering.  This newcomer band...

April 27 & August 24, 2020

When Wilhelmine sings, you know right away that she’s from Berlin. It reveals itself in her direct way of speaking. In the attitude in her voice. Wilhelmine speaks about everything that goes through her head. And this “everything” doesn’t always show only the easy side of life.  Her songs reflect her freedom and being in love as much as they do her experiences with addiction and resentment....

April 30 to May 02, 2020

“Diva gut” was the name of the legendary show in which Georgette Dee & Cora Frost last appeared together on stage 20 years ago. Berlin's most famous underground divas are still good - if not even better than ever! At last, these two heavenly creatures have a new, sparkling show named “DEE FROST WELT-Lieder”, which is based on their very own special view of the world. The world in which the...

The press and the public are of one mind: hardly any other artist comes as close to David Bowie as Sven Ratzke. Bowie personally gave Ratzke his permission to avail of his entire works. The resulting STARMAN tour was a great success.  Ratzke is now venturing once again into the universe of this musical legend – different, intimate, with only Ratzke’s voice and a virtuoso on the piano...

Is it chanson, comedy, cabaret, concert or a show? You could call it SalonHipHop and CabaretCool but they still don't quite capture the genre of the all-encompassing gifts and talents of the Thomas Pigor and Benedikt Eichhorn duo. They are extremely political and intellectual, hilariously funny and witty, they broach love and despair, the restrictions of human existence as well as the little...

A night full of inspiration, new perspectives and the “obligatory” portion of naked skin: the first Boylesque Drag Festival Berlin. Berlin has always been a melting pot and a cultural pioneer in Germany. And Boylesque, which is also lovingly referred to as (male) striptease with a storyline already delighted male and female audiences in the late 18th century. In the early 1920s, this art form...

May 18 & 19, 2020

Two pianists who could hardly be more different: Paul Cibis already had private piano lessons as a child. He wore spotless white gloves and regularly won the German music competition for youth “Jugend Musiziert”. And at the second of the two adjacent pianos: Andreas Kern, who taught himself piano in a bar. He also already played Chopin at 12, because the bar owner wanted him to. But at the same...

Erik Leuthäuser is the most recent “new recruit” at the BAR JEDER VERNUNFT. The young singer, already a well-known name in certain circles, with his dreamily beautiful voice, together with his on-stage guests, presents his unique musical concept somewhere between modern chanson, pop and serene jazz.  With his sensitive singing style, he elevates the German language to a wondrous level,...

June 03 to 17 / Nov 04 to 18, 2020

A good-fun expedition through the now-lost Wild West as a place of longing, where every child’s dream of being a lasso-throwing cowboy on horseback comes true.  Whether drawing a knife, or pulling swinging a colt: Meret Becker, Anna Fischer, Anna Mateur, Andreja Schneider and Katharina Thalbach are “The 5 Glorious Seven”, the coolest cowboys since Clint Eastwood and Yul Brynner. Please note...

They are just so international (Turkish, Israeli,...

It sometimes seems like it’s impossible to have Kurt Weill without Bertolt Brecht. However, the creative work of the Jewish composer who was born in Dessau, matured to become an artist in 1920s Berlin, and fled from the Nazis is much broader than The Threepenny Opera or Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny. In America, where Weill lived from 1935 until his death in 1950, he wrote musicals and...

She is groove and jazz and blues, she is humour and cabaret and comedy. She has been called a miracle voice or exceptional vocals, vocal acrobat or outstanding singer, her voice has been compared to Nina Hagen, Janis Joplin or Zarah Leander – all of this is true and still it is not enough to describe this wonder of nature. She dances, sings, screams and groans, she grunts, stomps and...
