The German Ambassador's Residence in Washington DC
A new soirée noir written and directed by Adrienne Haan
With MD Richard Danley on the piano
Berlin; yes, that is the wild, wicked, feverishly crazy metropolis of the short-lived Weimar Republic, whose appeal continues to radiate fascination to this day. Marlene Dietrich, Friedrich Hollaender, Kurt Weill, Mischa Spoliansky, Bertolt Brecht, Hans Eisler, Kurt Tucholsky, they all flare up again when Adrienne Haan leads the audience through a musical journey of Berlin’s Roaring 20s, accompanied by her long-time music director Richard Danley on the piano.
The artist weaves the threads between feminist struggle and female glamor and takes the audience on an exciting musical journey through history.
This soirée is also an important warning that almost 100 years after the fall of the Weimar Republic, the world is once again facing similar threats today.
