]]> The Komische Oper Berlin is currently undergoing renovations (scheduled to last six years!), but this hasn’t stopped the company from performing in other venues and presenting new productions.

The Schiller Theater, which is hosting the Komische Oper as it once did for the Staatsoper Unter den Linden, will stage Akhnaten by Philip Glass from March 15 to April 20, 2025.

This minimalist masterpiece, directed by Barrier Kosky the resident director of the Berlin institution), is the final installment of the trilogy dedicated to world-changing figures. After Einstein on the Beach and Satyagraha, Akhnaten features the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten as its central figure.

For the occasion, the Royal Danish Opera will be joined in the pit by Concerto Copenhagen and its conductor Lars Ulrik Mortensen. Following performances of Giulio Cesare in Egitto in 2005, this historically informed ensemble has been invited to take part in the Danish institution’s Baroque productions on numerous occasions, with great success.
