309: 616:, the word "from" didn't convey that this has been revived many times; I've just added new wording that does. Since I didn't know whether the pictured 2009 revival was the most recent, or if the piece is still in the company's repertoire (though I imagine it is), I didn't mention it directly. If "protected" isn't a valid word for the monument classification, perhaps "designated" or something along those lines? What does the classification mean, exactly? (Some classifications, while not preventing demolition, and make alterations more difficult or give more ammunition to people fighting to save the structure.) 167: 401:
1938 to 1947 if the building was out of commission from the end of May 1943. Maybe the source would explain (which might be worth echoing in the text); were operas being performed elsewhere, and he was director of the company as well as (or instead of) the house? (I have no idea where further information might be found. If there isn't the sourcing for it, perhaps the section needs to be scaled back and/or renamed: repetiteurs are not performers. Staff? Directors? I'm not sure of the best way to categorize everyone.)
292:. Hook assumes too much knowledge and misses details that might attract interest; why not "sang the role of Siegmund in Die Walküre" and "the centennial of Wagner's Ring"? Several examples of problematic prose are given there as well, including "In 1939 it was changed considerably." and "The opera is known for revivals of operas", but the whole History section needs significant work, as do other sections including Premieres and revivals. I'd advise a thorough copyedit. 1057: 466:. We agreed to cover the operatic part of the company in the house article (even for times the house was not available), because the company is for all "Sparten" (opera and play, was for ballet until they split): it would get confusing. - I am tempted to hide the whole people section until after DYK. - I think the hook about Pina Bausch who is known internationally is more attractive than one on some old house in Germany, -- 285: 1081: 257: 704:
to know that in the mid-1950s they were just starting to rebuild major theaters like this one. However, if ALT1 is to be used, it needs to be revised into better prose. I tried, and it went in a different direction. I have two options; the first is a bit shorter and has Bausch as choreographer, while the second alludes to her running the Tanztheater:

Good work on sourcing all those important productions. I think "classified as an architectural monument" should be fine. I think we'll have to agree to disagree on the interest of the hooks: while naturally Germany had a great deal of rebuilding to do in the 40s and 50s, I thought it was interesting

I've done a copyedit of the article. The only sections I haven't touched are the Performers and the Location: both of these need more sourcing (one per paragraph guideline), and there's something a bit odd about the first listed Performer, Fritz Lehmann. I'm not sure why he was music director from
351:
The history section is an assembly of puzzle pieces which I found in our articles. It is surprising (to me at least) how many notable people of European theatre worked in Wuppertal at the beginning of their career. The original hook gives one (extremely well known) example. We can drop the section
378:
Gerda, I think the article needs a new section about today's use of the opera house which could have something like that—major theatrical and dance productions, in addition to operas. Do large orchestras also play on stage there? If so, mention that as well. (This material echos, and would be the

Both are longer, but I think the "stage covered with soil" adds extra punch (soil is different from dirt, so I went with the article's word; if "dirt" is appropriate, then "in dirt" can replace "with soil"). There may be ways to condense these, but I haven't figured out how yet. ALT2 is 197

Starting in the end: I will remove the red link (left from the German). When the paper may get an article, it will be found. - Your soil idea is great, and yes, soil, earth, to the roots, - not dirt. I don't like the article's topic as a genitive, so

You might want to consider a new hook just about the house: it says something that the war ended in 1945, yet this was one of the first war-damaged theaters to reopen after rebuilding, though it didn't do so until 1956, eleven years afterward.
601:
Gerda, I'm not sure we can assume good faith about the unsourced operatic World Premieres paragraph, especially as there is disagreement with other Knowledge pages. For example, the 1986 Cyberiad is, if you go to the composer's page, called

Thank you for copy-editing. Just one item: The Rite of Spring was first performed in 1975, but kept for a long time as the 2009 picture shows, probably even today, - that's what I tried to say by "from 1975", it doesn't show now,

One more: "protected" as a monument", really? So far yes, but the Schauspielhaus was listed the same way, and did it prevent closing? No. Will it prevent demolition? We don't know yet. --

Let me know what you think. One final note: the "Location" section needs some sort of sourcing. (Is the red link really appropriate in the reference section?)

Needs new review including ALT5 hook, given issues with original one and changes since. (Have struck other hooks due to various issues with them.) Thanks!

Nice article. The changes made since the first review have clearly significantly improved it. ALT5 looks fine to me; I'd say this one's good to go now.
