Okay, let’s do one on Auschwitz or Treblinka or any German concentration camp. I bet there’s some fun stories there that could be put to music.

Musicals are not inherently frivolous. Yes you could do a musical set in the camps if you do it with taste.

Not to belabor the point, but "Cabaret" was set in the early days of Nazi Germany. The hedonistic performers at the Kit Kat Klub are eventually either murdered by the Nazis or incarcerated in a concentration camp, depending on the staging of the show's final scenes.
