’Bar jeder Vernunft’ is worth a visit just for its unique venue value alone. The ‘Danse Paleis’, which was created in 1912, was originally used as a seasonal ballroom and dance tent the in seaside resorts of Flanders and Holland. The tent with original art nouveau décor is still a fascinating place to relax – among red velvet drapes, by candlelight and alongside mirrored walls.
And the high-class programme offered here every night of the week is further proof of the quality of this venue. Ever since the summer of 1992, the crème de la crème in entertainment circles takes to the stage here, playing to a 250-strong audience. Many artists witnessed the venue’s initial teething problems with electricity and heating – or lack thereof – but see the ‘Bar jeder Vernunft’ as their home and keep returning to its exquisite little stage.
Chanson & Cabaret
The invitingly charming stage programme includes chanson evenings, tongue-in-cheek cabaret, and glamorous revues. Well-known artists like Ars Vitalis, ‘Geschwister Pfister’, Meret Becker, Malediva, Max Raabe, Otto Sander, Cora Frost, Georgette Dee, Gayle Tufts, Pigor & Eichhorn, Rainald Grebe or Ulrich Tukur liven up the stage here, in Berlin’s Wilmersdorf district, near Kurfürstendamm.
An eclectic selection of culinary delights beckons ahead of the shows, and since 2002, a sister tent named ‘Tipi’, twice the size of ‘Bar jeder Vernunft’ has taken up residence in the Tiergarten district, next door to the Chancellery.
