Bent, written by Martin Sherman, is a moving story of two gay concentration camp victims who are sent to Dachau and fall in love, using their relationship as an emotional crutch in their efforts to survive the horror of the Holocaust.
The play premiered off-Broadway in 1978 with groundbreaking impact, as there had previously been almost no inclusion of gays in discussions about the Holocaust. With its message about tolerance, love, and human dignity, the play was very successful and was nominated for both a Pulitzer Prize and a Tony Award in 1980.
