Berlin cabaret help needed.

September 11, 2009 1:22 AM

We will be in Berlin from this Saturday until Wednesday. Please recommend a cabaret-type performance that will be comprehensible to non-German speakers, is not overly risque, and will make for a fun evening.

I think you might have specified this with some slightly contradictory guidelines, since "Varieté" is usually in German and generally has a few somewhat risqué elements, or at least a lot of contortionism. All of the Wintergarten stuff I've seen has been comprehensible to non-English speakers, but they are hosting a burlesque show at the moment.

Maybe you want the Chamäleon:

That looks mostly acrobatic, though given that it's bathtub-themed and occurring in Berlin, there might be some mild sexay-ness.
