Christmas ballet
In this magnificent production of The Nutcracker, the gay Spanish director of the Staatsballett, Nacho Duato, brings to life not just a dreamlike Christmas fairy tale but also – as in the original work by E.T.A. Hoffmann – a story of growing up.
A good 100 years ago, in the then still independent area of Charlottenburg, the Deutsche Oper was founded in the name of modern music theater, offering full visibility of the stage from every seat. The opera house stayed true to this tradition of citizenry when Fritz Bornemann's new building opened in 1961.
