Variety Show

GOP

Show more show less GOP

GOP stands for the Georgspalast in Hanover, a variety theatre with a long tradition. The brand name has since been taken to seven other locations in Germany and is now the most successful variety theatre company in Europe.

Under the motto ‘Entertainment for all the senses’ and the artistic language of imagination and skill, the GOP utilises the tension between avant-garde and tradition to create a new world of variety theatre, delighting over 800,000 visitors every year.

The GOP shows were created exclusively for the Europa 2, full of artistry at the highest level and audiovisual experiences in the productions. The boundaries between fiction and reality seem to blur, physics appears to be suspended and the impossible appears to become possible. The physical artistry of the fantastic artists, artistic pearls that are woven into a glittering chain of all facets of variety art, create modern, highly impressive show experiences.
