5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning, August 2, 2000

By	Diane (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: I Am a Camera: A Play in Three Acts (Hardcover)

I'm a sucker for plays, and this play is no exception. I was fascinated by the title and read it without having any idea as to what the content was. It is wonderfully written and stark for the time it was written. It tells the story of Christopher Isherwood and the time he spends in Germany during the Second World War. You confront frank subjects and controversial topics in this book, and you realize that during World War II, people worried about some of the same things today, such as unwanted pregnancy and racism, to name a couple. Everything you once viewed in an idealized way during this time period unravels, and you don't really mind.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am a Camera, October 27, 2007

By	mont blanc "swiss alps" (geneva, switzerland) - See all my reviews

Splendid. I guess it's partway between the book "Sally Bowles" and the film "Cabaret" and I look forward to studying it with my English students and seeing it as a playreading soon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life Is A Cabaret, January 18, 2000

By	Jerry Elgin Lee (Texas) - See all my reviews

In all its forms (plays, movies, and books) the legacy of the radical Sally Bowles will live on forever. It is the lidicracy of the times that makes this spectackle a spectacle. A starving artist in Berlin that on New Years Eve met a wild and (quote-on-quote) "Perfectly Marvelous Girl" in a drab nightclub in the mist of the third reich. The spirit of the girl in this grim country is one of the reasons that her story will live forever. And also, seeing a performance in Davis, California starring Matt Dunn as the Emcee, and Rebecca Tosca Grey as the ever so taslented Sally Bowles releived me of all my stress, as well as "mind matter."
