schnippeln & plaudern SPECIAL: Tanznacht Berlin

Social Dinner by Inge Zysk, Felicitas Zeeden, Mila Pavićević


An open regulars' table in our new space at Grüntaler 9 creates a platform for discussions and getting to know each other personally. Everyone is invited - from neighbors, artists and our regulars to Tanzfabrik newcomers. The changing chefs are artists who work as part of a residency at Grüntaler 9. While peeling, slicing, cooking and drinking together, the aim is to create time and space for conversations and encounters - be it about favorite recipes, dentist recommendations or creative ideas for the next performance.

On July 11, the Tanznacht Berlin team will shape the flavor of the evening — the Social Dinner begins to take on its signature, somewhere between hospitality and conceptual cuisine.

About Tanznacht Berlin. Vocal Affairs:
From September 10–14, 2025, Tanzfabrik Berlin BÜHNE once again opens space for voices, bodies, and resonance. Under the title Vocal Affairs, the festival brings together artistic perspectives that understand voice as both a political and embodied tool — curated by Felicitas Zeeden and Mila Pavićević.

Accessibility
The Grüntaler 9 store is at ground level and is wheelchair accessible via two provisional ramps (16% und 18%). If you need help with the use of the ramp, please do not hesitate to contact a member of staff. The entrance door is 90cm wide. The toilet is not barrier-free. The social dinner takes place around a table. Various seating options are available if required (folding chairs, beanbags and cushions).
