Gay conversion therapy remains legal in 170 countries around the world including Britain. COPENHAGEN 1940. With the Nazi occupation of Denmark, life did not change much. Zack and Nikolai enjoy the hedonism of the cabaret, see friends and are happy in love. Their world is shattered when Doctor Carl Vaernet discovers a cure for homosexuality. Nikolai is arrested, interrogated and experimented on in front of General Von Ascelmen, who is so impressed with the Doctors results that he appoints him to cure homosexuals in Buchenwald concentration camp. After several attempts the cure fails, the Nazis lose interest and send Doctor Vaernet back to Copenhagen. Upon the liberation of Denmark by British forces, Doctor Vaernet is arrested and interrogated but when the British authorities learn of his work, they are keen to bring him to Britain. Feigning a heart condition, he is sent to Sweden for treatment on a British stipend and flees to South America. He remains in Argentina until his death, never prosecuted. After liberation, Zack and Nikolai try to rebuild their lives and rekindle their love. This important play exposes a heartbreaking love story amidst the brutal and savage true story of an obsessed and forgotten Nazi war criminal.
