Martin Sherman's worldwide hit play Bent took London by storm in 1979 when it was first performed by the Royal Court Theatre with Ian McKellen as Max (a character written with the actor in mind). The play itself caused an uproar. It educated the world Sherman explains. People knew about how the Third Reich treated Jews and to some extent gypsies and political prisoners. But very little had come out about their treatment of homosexuals. Gays were arrested and interned at work camps prior to the genocide of Jews gypsies and handicapped and continued to be imprisoned even after the fall of the Third Reich and liberation of the camps. The play Bent highlights the reason why - a largely ignored German law Paragraph 175 making homosexuality a criminal offense which Hitler reactivated and strengthened during his rise to power.,Martin Sherman,Bent: The Play (Applause Books),Applause,1557833362,DRAMA European English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh,DRAMA General,Drama,Drama texts, plays,Drama: General,European - English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh,GENERAL,General Adult,LGBT,Non-Fiction,PERFORMING ARTS Theater General,Performing ArtsTheater - General,Performing Arts: Theater General,Plays,Plays Drama,Plays, playscripts,Playscript,Theater - General,United States,Western Europe
