Our wildly popular immersive, subversive, underground cabaret event Tiergarten will return for a special one-night-only presentation, in partnership with the acclaimed PROTOTYPE Festival!
Taking its name from the Tiergarten—“The Garden of Beasts”—a sprawling central park in Berlin around which the murderous leaders of the Third Reich rose to power, Master of Ceremonies Kim David Smith will lead us on a musical journey backwards in time, exploring historic moments of societal madness through music ranging from Handel and Verdi to The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Dean Martin to Max Richter, William Byrd to Brecht & Weill, with a panoply of performances that includes opera, classical, jazz, ballet, burlesque, and more.
Audience members will enter the event through an alleyway behind St. Paul's Carroll Street in Brooklyn, into a church assembly hall that's been transformed into a 1920s Weimar Speakeasy, where they can enjoy food, libations, and pre-show ambiance before the performance begins.Tiergarten is directed by Death of Classical founder and Artistic Director Andrew Ousley, with additional performers including burlesque artist Pearls Daily, dancer Liana Zhen-Ai, and more.
ALL DRINKS AND FOOD ARE INCLUDED IN THE TICKET PRICE!
We'll have red & white wine, several types of beer, and cider to drink, as well as non-alcoholic cocktails from Curious Elixirs. For nourishment, we'll have a thematically-appropriate offerings of assorted meats, cheeses, breads, fruits, and vegetarian/vegan options - don't expect a Michelin Star, but we'll definitely have plenty of victuals to pair with your libations!

1920s ATTIRE IS STRONGLY, EXUBERANTLY ENCOURAGED!
You don't HAVE to bust out your finest vest or flapper dress, but the more that you can get into the mood, the more we'll all be transported...
An unforgettable evening of music, theater, food, and drink, as we reflect on the gathering clouds that enshrouded the crumbling Weimar Republic, and look ahead with increasing angst upon the fragile balance of the present moment.
