Lili Marlene

A Jewish family’s escape during the rising tide of Nazism and the brave souls that fought to get them out.

Book, Music & Lyrics by Michael Antin


SYNOPSIS

Mike Antin’s latest musical is about Rosie Penn, the famous cabaret singer, and Count Hans Wilhelm van Kleister Graff. It is is set in the last year of the Weimar German Republic and into the 3rd Reich period.

As the dark clouds of Fascist takeover become clearer, the Count, as the head of the passport bureau of the State Department, works to get the VIP German cultural and scientific elite out of German.

The Count realizes that he must leave and get his surviving family out before the shadowy inhumanity of anti-Semitism descends upon them as National Healthcare and Immigration Reform, Industrial Unity and National Pride become the motto of the new Nazi Party.
