Opera Dolmuş By Komische Oper Berlin

Since the 2012/13 season, the »opera dolmuş« (the name is a play on the description for the group taxis typical of Turkey) minibus has been taking singers and musicians from the Komische Oper Berlin on regular visits to institutes in city districts with a high percentage of residents from all manner of cultural backgrounds, in order to locally present a condensed, acting- and music-based journey through 500 years of operatic history. To complement this project, the »opera dolmuş for children« was founded in 2014. Its programme is aimed at a young audience (and their families), and is performed at schools, parents’ cafés and intercultural family centres.
