Orpheus in the Underworld - Komische Oper Berlin

Jacques Offenbach's operetta Orpheus in the Underworld comes to Berlin on Friday, 9 October 2026 at Schillertheater in Charlottenburg. Komische Oper Berlin, which has been housed in this imposing early twentieth-century theatre building since 2023, presents this classic operetta about Orpheus's descent into the underworld. The performance is one of two German dates on the artist's tour — Offenbach previously appeared in Lübeck. Schillertheater, the company's temporary home during renovation of its historic venue on Behrenstraße, provides a stage for opera, operetta, and musical productions.
