The staged reading tells of the rise and fall of the folk singer Käsebier and of the glittering dynamism of Berlin at the end of the 1920s. Käsebier, a secret tip, quickly becomes a megastar whose possible success everyone wants a piece of, and he is marketed shamelessly. The staging comes from artistic director Oliver Reese, with staging, design, music and lighting by Katja Pech, Jörg Gollasch and Steffen Heinke.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/berlin/events/katharina-thalbach-liest-kasebier-erobert-den-kurfurstendamm-3767/", "official_url": "https://www.berliner-ensemble.de/thalbach-liest-kaesebier", "image": "https://noky.io/images/6ae6ce8943c48fd32966a605be103831444967d3b0f609cf5b2adbbe3ed7db71-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-10-28T19:30:00+01:00", "end": "2026-10-28T21:15:00+01:00", "place": "Berliner Ensemble", "address": "Bertolt-Brecht-Platz 1, 10117 Berlin", "tickets": "few"}], "similar": [{"title": "Musikalische Lesung R.
