Emotional evenings with choirs from around the world
Up to five different choirs or ensembles from around the world will be invited to appear with two of Stimmfusion's choirs at one of the evening concerts with a colourful and varied programme. These choir concerts will take place at the "Comedia" theatre in Cologne – one of the greatest and most attractive locations on Cologne's theatre scene.
On one of these evenings, your choir will have the opportunity to appear on stage performing songs from your repertoire (approx. 20 minutes) and contribute to creating impressive and memorable evenings. The opening and closing numbers will be sung by all the choirs together, thereby ensuring an atmospheric beginning and end to each evening. You will be provided with the titles and sheet music for these joint opening and closing numbers once your choir or ensemble has registered for the choir concerts.
After each of the evening concerts, an after-show party will be held in the "Comedia" theatre restaurant where impromptu performances, group singing, and solo numbers will be very welcome!
Planning information
The Comedia's auditorium seats almost 320 people. The stage is 10 m wide x 7 m deep with unrestricted wheelchair access. The dressing room and green room area has restricted wheelchair access and can only be reached via a set of nine steps or via freight elevator. There will be four rooms plus two small dressing rooms with mirrors for approximately 15 people.
The theatre's small auditorium will be available for vocal warm-up (with a stage 8 m wide by 4 m deep). The small auditorium seats 170 so choirs will be able to listen to each other live before they go on stage.
Mineral water will be provided in the dressing rooms. The theatre is located close to a fair number restaurants and places where food and snacks can be purchased.
