Admiralspalast Berlin Haller Herman Nightlife Noch Revue Cabaret
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the electrifying atmosphere of the introdctory scene from Herman Haller's revue "Big City Nights" and the following performance of "Die Fledermaus" at Berlin's legendary Admiralspalast in 1925. The image transports us back in time to the Roaring Twenties, an era of jazz, excitement, and cultural revolution. The scene is set against the backdrop of a grand, Art Deco stage, adorned with shimmering gold and intricate geometric patterns. The orchestra, dressed in sharp suits and bow ties, is poised and ready to bring the music of the era to life. The audience, dressed in their finest evening attire, sits eagerly in the dimly lit theatre, anticipating the night's entertainment. The energy in the room is palpable as the curtain rises on "Big City Nights," a revue that celebrated the vibrant nightlife of Berlin. The city was known for its cabarets, jazz clubs, and theatres, and this production captured the essence of that scene. The performers, a mix of dancers, singers, and comedians, were known for their daring and provocative acts, pushing the boundaries of what was considered acceptable in mainstream entertainment. As the night progressed, the revue gave way to a performance of "Die Fledermaus," a classic operetta by Johann Strauss II. The ornate costumes, intricate sets, and stunning vocals transported the audience to a world of elegance and refinement, a stark contrast to the raw energy of the revue. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of Berlin's entertainment scene in the 1920s, a time of creativity, innovation, and cultural experimentation. It serves as a reminder of the power of the arts to bring people together and transport us to another time and place.
