Robert Ziegler 's six-part series tracing the history of cabaret.
3: Weimar Nights
It was in Germany that the wit and originality of the new Kabaratt took seed after the First World War.
The cultural capital naturally became Berlin, home of the legendary Blue Angel club and its unattainable icon,
Marlene Dietrich. From there to
Vienna, where a fresher, more stimulating atmosphere prevails. A city steeped in musical traditions embraces the new cabaret and adapts it to more salubrious surroundings.
