Talk:Der Kaiser von Atlantis

Comments

I've done some work to make this page more wikipedia-worthy. How does it look? Does the tag still need to remain? Thanks, DJRafe 18:30, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

I've just removed the tag. Nice work! --Folantin 10:20, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Great article. I wanted some basic info without someone writing their graduate thesis, and this fit the bill. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.249.215.163 (talk) 03:27, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

"the camp experience"

Utitz survived the camp experience - This seems an odd phrasing, considering that it was a concentration camp. "The camp experience" sounds more like a Boy Scouts summer camp. I"ve deleted "experience." Omc (talk) 03:31, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

Der Trommler – Drummer, not Drummer Girl

"Der" is the male article in German, a female character would have been named "Die Trommlerin" or "Das Trommlermädchen". OrestesLebt (talk) 12:31, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

British premieres

There seem to be a lot of them:

• 1977 London Sinfonietta (studio performance only?)
• June 1979 - Dutch National Opera/Nottingham
• May 1981 "British premiere" - Morley College (amateur performance, I suppose)
• July 1988 "1st professional production" - Mecklenburgh Opera/Donmar

to which might be added:

• 10 May 1988 - Wiener Kammeroper/George Tabori/Bloomsbury Theatre

Perhaps they are true, but just need explaining. Davidships (talk) 16:56, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
