Berlin Volksoper edit

Latest comment: 12 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

I believe that the theatre was at one time refered to as the Volksoper Berlin in German, and that many English language references refer to the theatre as the Berlin Volksoper. There are a number of english language wikipedia articles which refer to the Berlin Volksoper so this might be both a good thing to mention in the article and a good redirect to make.4meter4 (talk) 15:52, 3 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

On a side note, thank you Gerda for this article.4meter4 (talk) 15:53, 3 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Dr. Blofeld created it. It was for a while (after the war) Städtische Oper Berlin, again a different Theater, to my knowledge, the redirect exists. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:49, 3 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Volksoper Berlin also, in the 1930s, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:54, 3 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
