"Bent" by Martin Sherman
Nominee! 1980 Tony Award, Best Play
Named among the "10 most influential postwar British plays" by Guardian UK!
In 1934 Berlin on the eve of the Nazi incursion, Max, a grifter and his lover Rudy begin a nightmare odyssey through Nazi Germany. Ranked lower on the human scale than Jews, the men as avowed homosexuals, flee. Max hopes to survive the death camps but it is not to be. Richard Gere created the role of Max on Broadway.
"Powerful and provocative." - The New York Times
