Berlin Nights resurrects the Theater at Potsdamer Platz.
We're breathing new life into a structure that has – much to Berliners' regret – been unused for some time: the THEATER AT POTSDAMER PLATZ. Its prior history came to an unexpected end last summer – with a Berlin tale. And now we're writing a totally new chapter – another BERLIN Story.
The interior is based on a familiar setting for guests and the ensemble – an old warehouse typical of Berlin, made of crumbling grey concrete – similar to the Berlin club scenes such as Berghain, Tresor, E-Werk, Sisyphos, Bar 25, Kater Holzig (called "Kater Blau" these days), the Bunker, etc.
After the city had been divided for decades, a wall fell and this metropolis discovered new freedoms where creativity and nightlife culture flourished in countless abandoned factory buildings of what had been East German territory – as well as out in the outdoors.
Over the years a trend emerged due to the attraction of these abandoned warehouses, breweries or power stations. These 'noble trash' locations were the absolute best party locations for all kinds of events: galas, parties, club nights, concerts, electronic music performances as well as company events. One evening you had a classical music concert, on the next there was a wild party within the same crumbling concrete walls and then just a few hours later – after the last traces of the party had been removed – business folks met for a rustically cool business lunch. This is Berlin. This unique feeling is what Berlin Nights is all about – telling the multifaceted story of such a location.
Berlin natives are familiar with the Theater at Potsdamer Platz as a location for particularly massive musical productions, leaving quite an impression here – and then there's the Blue Man Group, of course which performed here for a number of years. Now comes Berlin Nights, joining a remarkable and famed group of productions and will be winning over Berliners' hearts with this authentic Berlin Story. It is a special and unique honor to have the opportunity to perform in this theater. We look forward to this privilege.

...the origins of our Idea.
Berlin is big. Berlin has so much to offer. Berlin's got history. Berlin has its very own nightlife, celebrating its own cultural wealth, its people and turning every evening into a unique event – and that's got to be shown on stage. Our audience will get to see the multifaceted nature of Berlin's nightlife – all in one show.
Already back during those days of Player's Delight, Butterfly Effect and the steadily growing gay and lesbian scene, party guests at these huge locations wanted the thrill of special acts – it was about much more than just rockin' and rollin'. This was when discotheques like Tollhaus, Adagio, Matrix, Narva Lounge (and many others) booked show acts to make party nights scintillate – every week something different – change was in the air every night. Masses of party enthusiasts congregated from all over the world, thronging the doors of clubs for 1 night, for multiple nights to be a part of these cool club scenes and especially techno clubs like KitKat/ before Sage, Tresor, Bar 25, Ostgut, House of Shame/Bassy and many others.
There were also variété acts, acrobatics in theaters such as Chamäleon, the Admirals Palast, Wintergarten, etc. Berliners loved turning their evening entertainment into something astonishing. Revues at the Friedrichstadt-Palast and plays were also tremendously successful. The Theater at Potsdamer Platz was impossible to ignore with its lavish musical and show productions. Despite the growth of the music and youth-bent party landscape, these cultural, acrobatic and entertainment arts retained great popularity.
And at the same time in the more shadowed corners less publicized, jazz music was a draw in a multitude of bars and smaller clubs. Musicians met up after work for a jam session during improvised concerts on smaller stages, getting to know each other one beat at a time. Some of these musicians were discovered here by already famous singers or bands and invited to audition. Some of them still tour together – now regulars with the 'Big Guys'n Gals'.
Due to the growing music and film sectors – getting more and more coverage in the media – the 'special effects' field attracted more attention. Berlin concerts and events promised: more sound, more bang, more action. Light design, pyrotechnics and dance emerged as omnipresent along with the pop music, playing a huge role in Berlin shows. Film productions got more expensive and had to bring in famous names and increasingly 'realistic' visual effects and animation. Actors from Berlin and beyond have the voices to dub the big Hollywood names such as Robert de Niro, Brad Pitt, Leonardo Di Caprio, George Clooney and James Franco, making Berlin a capital for recording studios.
