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.

New Scenes IV: An operatic triptych
11,000 metres deep, pitch black and barely explored: the Marianna Trench in the Pacific Ocean is the deepest point on the Earth’s crust, a fascinating and inaccessible terra incognita and source of inspiration for three brand-new pieces of musical theatre. In the latest edition of New Scenes it forms the source of inspiration for creations by Feliz Anne Reyes Macahis, Sven Daigger and Josep Planells Schiaffino. Their chamber operas receive their world premieres in the Tischlerei.
