With British eccentricity, Berlin wit, crazy acrobatics, and captivating pop melodies, the Wintergarten Varieté Berlin
invites you to a wild ride through the many faces of the capital in its current show.
At the heart of this highly entertaining spectacle is Berlin’s most beloved English eccentric, Jack
Woodhead, who, on his journey from a well-behaved British music student to an exalted, glamorous night
figure, will not only encounter all sorts of quirky capital characters but will also, with the help of cool music and
visual effects, winkingly experience the different facets of Berlin. Boredom is not an option here…
The diverse street scene of Berlin is reflected on the Wintergarten stage: An esoteric yoga teacher, CrossFit
enthusiast, start-up entrepreneur, Berghain regular, and a living disco ball are just some of the characters Jack
Woodhead will share the stage with.
Of course, as one would expect in the Wintergarten, the international acrobatics stars in this production provide a
potpourri of artistic excellence. Whether knotted on one arm, hanging by their hair, or jumping rope on a penny-farthing
– there’s plenty to marvel at.
And not least because the Wintergarten dares to do something truly bold:
No one worldwide has ever had the audacious idea to present a motorcycle globe in a variety theater. And certainly, no
one has tackled the enormous technical challenges involved and actually brought it to such a small stage.
Thus, visitors to VARIETÉ GAGA at the Wintergarten will experience a genuine world premiere:
Three – naturally all-electric! – motorcycles in the smallest motorcycle globe in the world (custom-made for the
Wintergarten). Furious speed, with gaps of just a few centimeters – and a few real loop-the-loops!
Laugh, dream, marvel… simply GAGA!
