Synopsis "Käsebier Takes Berlin: Gabriele Tergit"
Fake news in Weimar Berlin: a blistering classic satire of journalism, lies and celebrity, in English for the first timeIn Berlin, 1930, the name Käsebier is on everyone's lips. A literal combination of the German words for 'cheese' and 'beer', it's an unglamorous name for an unglamorous man - a small-time crooner who performs nightly on a shabby stage for labourers, secretaries, and shopkeepers. Until the press shows up.In the blink of an eye, this everyman is made a star: one who can sing songs for a troubled time. Margot Weissmann, the arts patron, hosts champagne breakfasts for Käsebier; Muschler the banker builds a theatre in his honour; Willi Frächter, a parvenu writer, makes a killing from Käsebier-themed business ventures and books.All the while, the journalists who catapulted Käsebier to fame watch the monstrous media machine churn in amazement - and are aghast at the demons they have unleashed.
