Exploring the intersection of culture and politics, this book delves into the experiences of five German-speaking actors who fled Nazi Germany and thrived in British theatre during World War II. Their emotional performances garnered critical acclaim, supported by prominent British theatre figures. The narrative highlights their contributions to British propaganda, including Martin Miller's satirical takes on Hitler and Lucie Mannheim's anti-Nazi rendition of 'Lilli Marlene,' reflecting the complexities of Anglo-German relations in a turbulent era.
