Cabaret – The Musical

At its' heart CABARET is a dramatic commentary told through three parallel story lines: the younger couple who are denying reality, the "toast of Mayfair" Fraulein Sally Bowles and the aspiring novelist Cliff Bradshaw from America; a dramatic & sweetly romantic sub-plot of love denied in the endearing older couple Fraulein Schneider & Herr Schultz; and the social commentary of the Master Of Ceremonies that was played by Joel Grey in the original production & by Alan Cummings in this 1998 version. The Kit Kat Klub performers that this show is so well known for work with the Master of Ceremonies in commenting on the dark cloud of National Socialism that is engulfing 1930's Germany & how the gathering storm is impacting the principle characters.
