From looking at the script you can tell that the character Emcee is flamboyant from the way he enters the room 'walking hand in hand with a Gorilla'. He likes to make statement entrances.
You tube-Cabaret 1972 Wilkomen
Watching this video Emcee brings the room to life with his enthusiastic and eccentric way of pronouncing his words and his strong make up look. The starting moment in the video with him looking at his reflection is a very feminine thing to do he could be checking his make up he then turns around to look at the camera and flutters his eyelashes like a woman Maybe he does this because he wants to come across as feminine to let the audience know his sexuality. He also dances with a cane to add to his character. He comes across as very feminine with his big fake eyelashes and lots of blusher its very similar make up to the Kit Kat girls. From watching the video I also think that the way he sings very high pitch and has constant smile on his face makes him seem quite sinister almost clown like.
