Christopher and His Kind

DRAMA

The hedonistic cabaret scene of Berlin in the thirties is in full swing when wide-eyed young writer Christopher Isherwood arrives in the city, unable to speak a word of German.  

To Isherwood's reserved English sensibility, the city's thriving gay subculture is thrilling and intoxicating, but he soon finds himself heartbroken after the failure of a hopeless love affair, and so sets out on a process of self-discovery. 

Christopher And His Kind tells the story of how Isherwood escapes repressive English society and his suffocating relationship with his mother Kathleen for the decadent and politically unstable world of pre-war Berlin.
