"Why doesn't anybody wonder why an incredibly dynamic M.C. is working in that same lousy club in Berlin? Shouldn't the MC be bad too?"

I've seen Grey in the film and in the 1987 revival, and I saw Cumming when the Roundabout production was new, and I always felt that the Emcee was meant to be a third-rate performer. However dynamic and talented those men may be, they played the character as a third-rate performer.
