German-Luxembourgish cabaret star Adrienne Haan will premiere her new show at the Théâtre National du Luxembourg in Luxembourg-Belair/Merl on Tuesday 18 March 2025 at 19:30.
The show is called Margo. Eine Frau in Berlin (Margo - A Woman in Berlin). According to Adrienne Haan, Margo is "the synonym for women in Berlin in the Roaring 1920s and early 30s; Margo is a vamp at the TingelTangel; she is the woman behind the mask. She is also the sophisticated seduction and temptation of those men who rule the world".
"But Margo is also the delicate, insecure girl whose husband returns severely physically wounded and shell shocked from the 'Great War'. She is a lesbian who - at the prestigious Eldorado - is searching for true love and the pleasures for one night. Margo is also the simple woman next door who fights for her rights, a suffragette fighting for Women's Rights or and the right to abort."
Adrienne Haan is an international singer (Chanteuse Internationale) with Luxembourg roots who has lived in New York (US) since 1997. In this new show, she "leads the audience through a musical journey of Berlin's Roaring 20s", accompanied by award-winning jazz pianist Benjamin Schaefer (Germany).
Adrienne portrays Margo in "this excitingly erotic and political soirée noir; the different types of women in Berlin during the Weimar Republic, tells their stories about their failures and successes, their desire for (sexual) freedom and the longing for acceptance in politics and society".
She described Margo as "a story of love, loss and disappointment, a dance on the volcano between the two world wars".
Tickets cost €25 and are available from the LuxembourgTicket website here.
