Response from the operator: My name is Berndt Schmidt, and I am the General Director of the Palast. I would like to thank you sincerely for your visit to our dream factory, as well as for your excellent review and recommendation. It is wonderful to read that our BLINDED by DELIGHT Grand Show delighted you and that we were able to provide you with such a thoroughly enjoyable evening. Please allow me to add a small note for other readers: At the Palast, we do not present musicals, but rather Grand Shows—large-scale stage entertainment in the tradition of revue productions, similar to those performed in Las Vegas. But this is just a small clarification. As mentioned, I thank you very much for your visit and for your excellent review.

A dazzling show!

My husband and I both loved this show - the singing, dancing, and acrobatic performances were top rate. And it’s true - you don’t need to speak any German to enjoy the performance!

Mesmerising fab show

This is an excellent entertainment. We are englush spoken and mist of text is in German but you won't be disappointed. The performances are spellbinding. Fab singing. Crazy bike riding and high rise performances. If you are in berlin do not miss this show.

Not for tourists

Unfortunately, Blinded by Delight was a disappointing experience. As a tourist, I found it difficult to follow because the show was entirely in German, which was not made sufficiently clear beforehand. The atmosphere was also far from enjoyable. The music was unnecessarily loud, and the audience was filled with teenagers who talked throughout much of the performance, making it hard to stay engaged. Considering the ticket price, I expected a much higher standard. While there were some good moments, parts of the dancing looked amateur and lacked the professionalism I was hoping for. Overall, I did not feel the show was worth the money. If you're deciding between productions, I would recommend Alizé by Cirque du Soleil instead, which offers a far more polished and entertaining experience.

Response from the operator: My name is Berndt Schmidt, I am the General Director of the Palast. Thank you for visiting and for taking the time to share your impressions, even though the evening clearly did not meet your expectations. You are right that a significant part of the songs is performed in German. The production is created and presented in Berlin and reflects its cultural context. At the same time, BLINDED by DELIGHT is not a traditional musical but a modern revue, where dance, music, acrobatics and visual imagery play the central role. This is also why many international guests enjoy the show without speaking German. For those who would like additional context, we provide English translations of the song lyrics online. We take the issue of loudness very seriously. We use an immersive sound system while always complying with all applicable legal requirements. I am sorry that fellow audience members affected your enjoyment of the evening. Unfortunately, audience behaviour is one of the few aspects of a live performance that we cannot fully control. For context, the current production is the most successful in the history of our venue, with occupancy currently around 95%, more than 450,000 tickets sold, regular standing ovations and over 95% positive reviews. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
