| Berlin Cabaret of Desire |

 In a time marked by explosive political change, Berlin became the centrepiece of European culture. In a world of the unknown, the people yearned for freedom, peace and truth. This truth was told in the intoxicating atmosphere of the cabaret hall – a haven of vice where sexuality, emotion, bohemianism and propaganda pushed modernism in its most vivid manifestation.
Sex. Hypocrisy. Defiance. Escape. The Street Theatre explores the biting musical experience of Kurt Weill, Mischa Spoliansky and Frederick Hollander. From MACK THE KNIFE to SURABAYA JOHNNY, these rousing anthems expose the hypocrisy of politics and the art of the possible.
Provoke your spirit with the voice of the underground.
“…The lust and anarchy of the weimar republic shall live forever…”
