| Summary: |
This video features a production of Mark Nadler's Off-Broadway cabaret performance I'm a Stranger Here Myself. Nadler performs in front of a projected montage of imagery that includes historical photos from the 1920s and 30s as well as gently evocative film clips from the Iowa-born performer's early years in New York. The production evokes the works of Weimar cabaret starts Kurt Weil, Lotte Lenya, Frederich Hollaender, Bertolt Brecht, and Marlene Dietrich. According to The New York Times, "the show is a journey that is both broadly historical and profoundly personal, sampling music linked to the Weimar era in Germany...In the show's final moments, what seemed to be a somewhat random collection of songs and stories turns out to have been leading somewhere after all." |
