On Tuesday 21st May 2013 we are extremely pleased to be welcoming to The Circus another eyewitness speaker from the Zeitzeugenbörse (Centre for Witness to Contemporary History). This is part of our monthly series events that we have been running for the past two years, in which we invite speakers to come and join us for a while and tell us their own personal stories about different moments in Berlin and German history.

This month we are delighted to welcome Dr Golkowsky who will be coming to talk to us about the Second World War and its aftermath. Dr Golkowsky was born in 1934 in Silesia, and will share stories of his experience during the war, the flight to the west, and observations on life for himself, friends and family, on both sides of the iron curtain.

We are really looking forward to another fascinating evening of personal history in Fabisch, and we hope you will join us. The talk will be in English, is open to all, and is free… although we will be collecting contributions towards our own donation to the ZZB to help them continue in their important work.

Where: Fabisch at The Circus Hotel, Rosenthaler Straße 1 (U8: Rosenthaler Platz)
When: Tue 21st May at 6.45pm

Trio Scho – Russian Swing and Soviet Schlager, live in Fabisch

19. Februar 2013 in Circus Hotel, Circus News, Events, Fabisch, Music by Paul

Trio Scho

“Scho” is a slang word from Odessa in Ukraine and means – roughly – “What do you like?” When it comes to the Trio Scho it stands for “What do we play? Our music!” The trio was formed in 1992 in the Ukrainian city of Poltava and since then have been appearing on the stages of Berlin and elsewhere on the road, bringing their distinct brand of Russian folklore, tango, swing, bossa nova and Soviet Schlager  to the stage,

We are extremely pleased to be welcoming Trio Scho for our Friday evening session in Fabisch, and cannot wait to hear their Russian songs, pieces from the “roaring twenties”, the tangos of Pyotr Leschenko and the Soviet hits of Leonid Utjosow… we doubt you will find anything else like this in Berlin on Friday evening, so you gotta get over to Fabisch and join the fun.

Trio Scho will be appearing at Fabisch, the Circus Hotel (Rosenthaler Straße 1, U-Bhf. Rosenthaler Platz) on Friday 22nd February at 10pm

This is part of our monthly series events that we have been running for the past two years, in which we invite speakers to come and join us for a while and tell us their own personal stories about different moments in Berlin and German history.

This month we are delighted to welcome Hans-Dieter Robel who will be coming to talk to us about his life in Berlin during the period when the city was divided in two by the infamous Berlin Wall. Born in Hanover in 1948, Herr Robel came to Berlin 1969 during one of the coldest periods of the Cold War. Working as a civil engineer, he was involved in projects not only in West Berlin but also in East Germany, and so experienced life on either side of the divide. The division of Germany also had a personal impact on Herr Robel and his family, as his grandparents were in the East and as a consequence they never met their grandson.

We are really looking forward to another fascinating evening of personal history in Fabisch, and we hope you will join us. The talk will be in English, is open to all, and is free… although we will be collecting contributions towards our own donation to the ZZB to help them continue in their important work.
