Грати в Ein Abend im Großen Schauspielhaus - Berlin 1927

Про цю гру

Three protagonists each invite us to join them on their unique journey down memory lane at the Grosse Schauspielhaus in Berlin. First time visitor Walter Schatz accompanies us through the impressive foyers and the colossal auditorium; celebrated singer Fritzi Massary offers a peek into the cosmos of a star; young lighting technician Otto Kempowski guides us through the fascinating world of theatre engineering. Thus we peer through a digital window to visit the famous theatre’s past and explore its art and architecture spatially in the here and now.

In 1919, theatre impresario Max Reinhardt and architect Hans Poelzig created one of the most visionary theatres of the 20th century in the heart of Berlin. Its expressionistic design, pioneering theatre technology and an innovative stage area made for an iconic piece of architecture, fondly referred to as the “dripstone cave”. Throughout the Golden Twenties theatre director Erik Charell’s musical revues brought the glamour of Broadway to Berlin.

Though the building is no more, a virtual reality experience allows us to visit Berlin’s bygone theatre days at the Große Schauspielhaus in 1927. A special feature of this project: historic artefacts from the Stadtmuseum Berlin and other archives are incorporated into the virtual narrative. Digital exhibits including posters, props, technical apparatus tacitly broaden our knowledge.

The unique architecture provides a traversable exhibition space that comes alive through our protagonists.
