Spielort : Rolf-Liebermann-Studio Bis 1938 war das Rolf-Liebermann-Studio ein jüdischer Tempel. In der Pogromnacht zerstört, ging es 1941 in den Besitz der Stadt über, später in den des Nordwestdeutschen Rundfunks, der es in einen Konzertsaal umbauen ließ. Heute zählt das Studio mit seinen klassischen Konzerten, Lesungen, Matineen und Jazzkonzerten zu den ersten Adressen für Hamburger Kulturinteressierte.
