Das weiße Rössl am Central Park
How do you build a new cultural home after exodus and explusion? The musical comedy Im Weissen Rössl (At the White Horse Inn) from 1930 the German revue theater's contribution to the topic of transferred homelands - and was banned by the Nazis. The piece, however, lived on in New York in productions made by Europeans who had fled the continent. The music of the original has now been combined with rediscovered parts of other versions of Rössl to become an evening exploring the lost history of entertainment, the German experience of displacement and the dazzling reinvention of home.

Artists
Müller/Rinnert
Johannes Müller and Philine Rinnert develop music theatre hybrids that focus on the past of opera, its effects and techniques, but which are also an archaeology of the present, of entertainment and queer culture. They combine classical music with current discourses and archaeological/pop-cultural artefacts. In their projects performers / dancers / actors / scientists / drag queens work together with classical musicians and singers. For their work Reading Salomé they received the jury prize at the Favoriten Festival 2016. In 2019 they were invited to Impulse Theater Festival with White Limozeen.
