1957, West Germany. The battle against the Nazis ended twelve years ago – but for Karl, a gay concentration camp survivor, the war never truly ended. Still criminalised under Nazi law, his life is on trial. The Pink List is a haunting one-person musical inspired by untold stories of queer men in post-war Germany – names recorded in the Pink Lists, then erased.
Praised as "a 5-star must watch at the Fringe" (★★★★★ Scene Magazine), this is the story of one man, one voice, one list they hoped we'd forget.
The Pink List a one-person musical inspired by the untold stories of gay men in postwar Germany, takes its name from the lists created by the Nazis to track and target gay men - lists that were still used by the German police in post-war years. This thought-provoking work sheds light on the struggle for recognition in a society that refused to acknowledge the suffering endured by the persecuted.
