Boat Opera / Nospreenovela
Thursday 29th August – 8pm
Opera in unexpected places seems to be the new zeitgeist in Berlin. No sooner have we had Kiez Oper presenting operas from a disused swimming pool and in an open-air, pagan themed setting, we have Wolfsbühne performing Nospreenovela on the spree. The performance will take place on boats on the river with spectators sitting along the bank, and be accompanied by a dance performance.
