Orchester der Staatsoperette Dresden, the orchestra of the Dresden State Operetta, will perform a concert at Kraftwerk Mitte in Dresden on March 29, 2027. The orchestra specializes in the performance of operetta and musical theatre repertoire, encompassing works by composers such as Johann Strauss II, Franz Lehár, and Emmerich Kálmán. Their style is characterized by vibrant orchestral arrangements, a focus on melodic clarity, and a tradition of interpreting both classic and contemporary operetta pieces. The ensemble frequently performs complete operettas as well as concert programs featuring highlights from the genre.

Kraftwerk Mitte is a former central power plant located in Dresden’s Mitte district. Originally built in the early 20th century, it supplied electricity to the city for decades. Decommissioned following German reunification, the building underwent extensive renovation in the 1990s and was repurposed as a cultural and event venue. It now hosts a diverse range of events including concerts, exhibitions, and club nights. The building's industrial architecture – featuring high ceilings, exposed brickwork and original machinery – provides a distinctive backdrop for performances.
