My grandma(90's) brought me and one of her friends(80's) to see a local comunity production of this show blind which was a hell of a pull. Apparently she thought her friend knew about the show, she didn't lmao i loved it but felt awkward about seeing it with them not knowing that the show was queer normally or that my grandmother DID know what we were going to. As others mentioned though germany was very accepting for the time before nazi's came to power, they had some of the best advances in sexual health and research before they burned it down.

2025-11-22 20:38:45 +0000 UTCI hope this doesn't feel too much like a spoiler, as I don't think it will be, but I have to point out that you're a bit off the mark about the issue of same-sex relations as relates to this show. It's actually set during the Weimar Republic, which was the government that preceded the Third Reich. The Weimar Republic was quite progressive in many ways, and the climate for gay people was unusually permissive in relation to the rest of the world. The way you see the Emcee being so suggestive would not have been out of place during that time. In many ways, Germany in the late 20s and early 30s was seen as quite decadent. Also - you're quite right to feel some sense of dread, though I certainly won't tell you WHY! Lastly, I have to say that I think this show, even without the legacy, would be very successful in today's media climate. I think when you see where it's going you'll understand why I say that.
