Welcome to the Tischlerei!
“Encounters“ is not just the title of one of the areas of focus in the Tischlerei this season. Encounters also form a prominent part of our entire programme. In a former lifetime the Tischlerei was the workshop of the Deutsche Oper Berlin; now it is a space for experimental performances and installations, world premieres and works in progress. We embrace crossover, blend pop, rock, fine art, avant-garde and opera and explore themes centring on ‘the stranger’ and otherness in general. This regularly involves contacts between cultures leading to the generation of new forms of musical theatre. You are cordially invited to witness all these encounters close at hand ... Let us surprise you,
Yours Dorothea Hartmann, Artistic Director, Tischlerei

Jazz guitarist Joscho Stephan - an important representative of modern Gypsy Swing for more than 20 years - dedicates a very special evening to the exceptional artist, full of the great music with which Reinhardt and violinist Stéphane Grappelli wrote jazz history in the 1930s.
