20 Years of Radialsystem – 20 Years of Collaboration. Since its beginnings, the music theatre ensemble NICO AND THE NAVIGATORS has been connected to this central yet idiosyncratic Berlin production and performance venue as a founding member. At the highlight of the anniversary celebrations on Saturday, 12 September 2026, the Navigators will accompany the festivities in the afternoon with a small band line-up and “Autumn Leaflets”. On this radiant autumn day, the grounds by the Spree will become an open space for encounters for children and visitors of all ages – with a picnic and a varied programme, carried by sounds in the field of tension between jazz and contemporary music.

Paul Hübner (trumpet), Lucas Johnson (drums), Niklas Werk (electric guitar), Sun-Young Nam (keyboard) and Ekaterina Bazhanova (vocals) open up a musical space between lightness and disruption, the familiar and the unexpected – while also offering a first taste of the upcoming co-production “Autumn Leaves”.
