Staatsballett Berlin
Between Defiance and Transience
Two masterpieces of modern ballet: Jiří Kylián’s Gods and Dogs explores the masks we wear and the search for identity, while Crystal Pite’s Angels’ Atlas enchants with light, movement and a haunting meditation on impermanence. An evening of intensity and wonder.
Gods and Dogs
From 14 September, Staatsoper Unter den Linden

Konzerthaus Berlin
Mahler & Berio at Musikfest
Dreamlike echoes drift through the soundscape in Berio’s Impressions, colliding with irony, folk-inspired gestures and explosive energy in Mahler’s Sixth Symphony. With Michael Sanderling conducting, the Konzerthausorchester appears on home ground at Musikfest.

Komische Oper Berlin @ Schillertheater
This Jesus Must Dance
A true mega-event: director Andreas Homoki and set designer Philipp Stölzl transform Hangar 4 at Tempelhof Airport into a monumental rock-show stage – with over 100 dancers. The perfect setting for a genuine superstar.
From 20 September @ Flughafen Tempelhof/ Hangar 4

Deutsche Oper Berlin
“Can You Unravel the Nature of Love for Me?”
This question sparks a contest of song that ultimately propels Tannhäuser, in a frenzy of poetry, beyond the bounds of society. Just three final performances remain – with star casting including Klaus Florian Vogt and Camilla Nylund.
