:''For the 18th-century English club in London with strong political and literary associations see the Kit-Cat Club.'' The KitKatClub is a nightclub in Berlin, opened in March 1994 by Austrian pornographic film maker Simon Thaur and his life partner Kirsten Krüger. == Overview == The KitKatClub is said to attract patrons from all over Europe and other parts of the world because of its music selection (techno and trance music) and its sexually uninhibited parties. The motto of the club is ''"Do what you want but stay in communication"''. Guests are allowed to engage in sexual intercourse openly at the venue. A strict dress code needs to be respected in order to get into the KitKatClub door, often enforced by Kirsten herself, and requiring fetish, latex, leather, kinky, high style, glamor. The venue consists of three dance floors and an outdoor area with a pool. It is decorated with ultra-violet light and fluorescent color paintings done by the Berlin-based painter Der Träumer. In recent years, the KitKatClub has tended to be less unruly. Enjoying music and dancing are now more important to the guests than coitus with their fellow patrons. The guests of the "Kitty" (as most of the Berliners like to name the club ) are not only heterosexual, a large number of homosexual men also spend their weekends in the club, allowing a high level of diversity amongst the clubbers. Through the years the KitKatClub has become a notorious Berlin institution. While Berlin was under a conservative regime in 2001, the club was harassed by the police and was charged with "invitation to public intercourse," a crime since pre-World War II. The club moved four times since its opening in 1994. It opened in Glogauer Straße in the Kreuzberg district in the former Turbine. In 1999 it moved to one of the biggest nightlife regions of Berlin, Neues Schauspielhaus at Nollendorfplatz. In 2001, it moved to another lot in the district Schöneberg in Bessemer Straße. At the beginning of July 2007 it moved to the SageClub in the Mitte district (Brückenstraße 1), very close to the techno club Tresor. It could be considered a noteworthy change in Berlin's clubbing landscape as Berghain, Tresor and KitKatClub now are located very close to each other. When the KitKat opened its doors in 1994 the musical profile of the club was mainly classical trance mixed with goa trance, but through the years the owners have opened the club to a much larger choice of electronic music. Some guests refer to the musical style that has developed as the "KittySound". To give this style a platform, a KitKat record label was founded in 2005 and two CDs were released, ''Hedonistic Nightlife in Berlin'' and ''The Piep Show Compilation #0''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KitKatClub」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
