The Palace

A Story set during the time of the Berlin Wall, giving you a one of a kind experience what it was like working at the Friedrichstadtpalast aka The Palace in the 80s.

I rarely watch german productions, cause I mostly dislike them in certain ways but what a surprise this show was!

Svenja Jung is amazing in her double role as twin sisters, always on point in her acting. Sometimes powerful, other times more emotional. She's like the cherry on top of a well done production. The beautiful score combined with those stunning pictures made my eyes water literally in every episode.

I'm not a fan of the revue or burlesque shows, but how they put this piece on screen is excellent. Overall a decent cast with Svenja being the Star of the Show without a doubt. Also worth mentioning is Heino Ferch who played the father in an astonishing way, proving his acting talents once again.

I binged this show within 2 days, its beautiful. Give it a try, even if its just for Svenja, probably the biggest talent in Germany right now.
