About this event

Struggling actress Susanne runs into washed-up ham actor Viktor and strikes up a friendship. When she stumbles upon Viktor’s secret—that he moonlights as a drag performer at a club—the two of them concoct a wild plan. What if Susanne takes his place, and does her routine pretending to be a drag queen? All goes well until “Viktoria” falls in love. Often cited as the pinnacle of Weimar musical comedy, and often adapted and imitated, Reinhold Schünzel’s VIKTOR UND VIKTORIA is an hilarious exploration of gender identity and role-playing in an era of liberated mores and looming crisis. A rarely seen queer classic!
