Photo Flash: Lakewood Theatre Company to Open with CABARET

Lakewood Theatre Company begins its fall season on September 8th with the legendary landmark musical Cabaret directed by Ron Daum. Musical direction is by Beth Noelle, and choreography is by Laura Hiszczynskyj.

Take your seat at the "perfectly marvelous" Kit Kat Klub in Kander and Ebb's Tony winning musical about cabaret performer Sally Bowles (Kayla Dixon), American writer Cliff Bradshaw (Jon Gennari), and the decadence of 1930s Berlin. With mounting fear and uncertainty outside, your Emcee (Chuck Ketter) welcomes you into a world where your troubles are left at the door... or are they? As Sally and Cliff pursue a life of pleasure in Weimar Berlin, the world outside the Klub begins to splinter. The two are faced with a choice: abandon themselves to pleasures promised by the cabaret, or open their eyes and face the coming storm.
