For 6 NIGHTS, "Berlin's Chanson Queen" (BZ) returns to the intimate atmosphere of BAR JEDER VERNUNFT.
A touch of French elegance and wild jazz wafts through the Spiegelzelt when this special artist with the "trademark voice that touches you immediately" (Nachtkritik) takes to the stage.
The actress, singer and songwriter is at home in a wide variety of musical genres. Whether jazz, musical, pop, country or French chanson - she unleashes every song and makes it her own as if it had been written for her.
She is celebrated internationally for her Brecht/Weill interpretations and at Berlin theatres such as the Komische Oper, the Berliner Ensemble and the Konzerthaus. For her staged Kurt Weill evening at the Komische Oper, directed by Barrie Kosky, she was honoured for the 7th time with the "Golden Curtain" audience award as Berlin's most popular actress.
With irresistible charm, self-irony, infectious joie de vivre and that unmistakable "slightly smoky, slightly absinthian voice" (RBB Kultur), she takes us on a 6 NIGHT journey into her musically multifaceted world.
"Spanish, French, English and German. Whatever the language, Katharine Mehrling breathes life into every song and transforms the evening into an unforgettable experience. Her truthfulness - in addition to her ability - is what makes the actress-singer unique." (Berliner Morgenpost)
