Following protests by German Jewish student groups, the Metropol-Theater in Munich, Germany has canceled the production of “Birds of a Kind,” a play that critics allege teems with antisemitic tropes and Holocaust trivialization.
The Algemeiner reports that the cancellation comes less than a week after the Jewish Student Union in Germany and the Association of Jewish Students in Bavaria issued an open letter expressing dismay about “the extent of the antisemitism displayed in it” and calling for the theater to be defunded.
“The audience is made to believe that their own antisemitic resentments are not taboo and could be freely expressed since this is supposedly normalized even within Jewish families.”
