Based on extensive archival research, this is a comprehensive study
of theatre in the Third Reich. It explores the contending pressures
and ambitions within the regime and the Nazi party, within the
German theatre profession itself and the theatre-going public.
Together, these shaped theatrical practice in the Nazi years. By
tracing the origins of the Nazi stage back to the right-wing
theatre reform movement of the late nineteenth century, Strobl
suggests that theatre was widely regarded as a central pillar of
German national identity. The role played by the stage in the
evolving collective German identity after 1933 is examined through
chapters on theatre and Nazi racial policy, anti-religious
campaigns and the uses of history. The book traces the evolving
fortunes of theatre in the Third Reich, to the years of 'total
war', and the resulting physical destruction of most German
playhouses.
