I love opera, bluegrass, burger joints and fictional detectives. Mostly, but not always, in that order. Formerly of Dunedin, formerly of Sydney, now travelling the world with the tenor in my life (Stuart Skelton) and blogging as I go.
Yes, it's for the Deutsche Oper. However, it's one of a series of posters advertising their 2011/12 season, all of them in a similar style. It doesn't reflect the actual production, which looks like this: http://www.deutscheoperberlin.de/?page=spielplandetail&id_event_cluster=708389
The others (I saw posters for Lohengrin and Jenufa today) are unfortunately not quite so hipstery, but this one cracked me up.
Good god! Do you have more info?

Please tell me this is from Berlin, the center of the Eurotrash world. I begin to regret not spending more time there.
