It’s show time in Berlin! Queen Cleopatra’s entire domain is in disarray, with a palace revolt, a drought, a rebellion, and a shortage of men. In such a time of crisis, the only help is in Cleopatra’s pearls of love. Full charge ahead on the audience’s funny bone!
‘And of course, it’s a delight to see Manzel as a heartily in-your-face queen with at least three hearts beating in her chest: that of the power-hungry boss, that of the lovelorn woman, and that of her boozy-sounding cat Ingeborg.’ [DER TAGESSPIEGEL]
‘The dance ensemble gives the show even more pizzazz by evoking the Roaring Twenties, thrilling the audience with Otto Pichler’s lively choreography.’ [BR KLASSIK]
3 hr 5 min incl. intermission
