About

House of Mazeltov is a Berlin-based interdisciplinary performance collective working at the intersection of queer culture, Jewish tradition, music, and radical hospitality. For over 15 years, the collective has created immersive performances, site-specific work, ritual-format reinterpretations, and politically engaged ensemble theatre across Germany and Europe.

Founded and led by Shlomi Moto Wagner — performer, opera singer, songwriter, actor, director, and drag queen performing as Mazy Mazeltov — the collective brings together a diverse ensemble of artists who share a commitment to making queer Jewish art visible, joyful, and unapologetically present.

In a time of rising antisemitism and the increasing boycott of Jewish artists in Berlin's cultural scene, House of Mazeltov stands for visibility, empowerment, and cultural survival.

Fifteen years of queer Jewish art making space where none was given.

Since October 7, 2023, queer Jewish artists in Berlin have faced unprecedented exclusion — boycotts, cancellations, and erasure from the spaces we helped build. House of Mazeltov is our answer: we create the stages that welcome us. We are here. We are loud. We are not going anywhere.
