Cabaret

Arden Theatre Company, Philadelphia

About the Show

“There was a cabaret, and there was a Master-of-Ceremonies and there was a city called Berlin in a country called Germany. It was the end of the world…and I was dancing with Sally Bowles and we were both asleep…”

Welcome to the Kit Kat Club, the hottest nightspot in 1929’s seedy and sinful Berlin. American writer Cliff Bradshaw travels to Germany in search of inspiration and pleasure, and finds both in nightclub performer Sally Bowles. However, outside the club’s doors, the Nazis’ impending rise to power threatens to splinter their decadent lifestyle. Featuring one of Broadway’s most memorable scores, Cabaret kicks off the Arden’s 30th anniversary season by transforming the F. Otto Haas Stage into the Kit Kat Club.
