Note meets noun. Accusative kisses chord. Melody embraces metaphor. Poets Annette Flemig and Jonin Herzig, together with the musicians of ROSA X, blur the boundaries between spoken word and music, which nobody will miss anyway. You don't have to choose, you can have both: Poetry and popular music from Friedrichshain.
Phil Richarde (Tropical Timewarp) provides musical diversity at the Theaterbar this evening: with an eclectic vinyl set, he takes the audience on a journey from jazz and blues to afrobeat and cumbia.

ROSA X (Anja Leu, Micha Schirmer and Nicholas Young) is the band from the neighborhood. Everyone in the Samariterkiez knows the thoroughbred musicians from next door, who masterfully move between genres with their own songs in German and English and make their listeners dance, think, laugh and cry. And every now and then there's a cover that nobody expected.
As a passionate record collector, curator and cultural activist,Phil Richarde is known for his cross-genre DJ sets and guarantees a unique listening experience.
