with Andrew Sachs
Andrew Sachs was 8 years old when one day in 1938 his parents took him and his brother and sister to the circus and then on for a family meal at a Berlin restaurant called Wagon Knecht. What happened there ended a happy childhood and his family's life in Berlin. Andrew revisits his old home, talks to people who knew him in those days and returns to the restaurant to tell the story of what happened that night in 1938 and of the nerve-racking days which followed.
With his wife Melody (who's learning German), he finds out how it might have been if his family had stayed - through devastating Allied bombing, the enactment of the Final Solution and the division of Berlin into two cities.

A ballet by Jiri Kylian
Music by Maurice Ravel
Performed by members of the Netherlands Dance Theatre L 'Enfant et les sortilèges is the magical world of childhood evoked by Ravel's setting of a fantasy by Colette. 'The Bewitched
Child' is usually performed as a one-act opera. Kylian keeps the score and the sung lyrics but sets the whole action free by using dancers rather than singers. This magical production shows why Kylian has established himself as one of the greatest creators of dance of this generation.
