Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome to Cabaret, Kander and Ebbs legendary musical masterpiece about British nightclub singer Sally Bowles, American writer Cliff Bradshaw, and the decadence of 1929 Berlin. With mounting fear and uncertainty of an emerging Third Reich audiences are lured into the sordid underworld of the Kit Kat Club. With the Emcees wry commentary, Cabaret explores this dark and tumultuous time with songs Maybe This Time, Dont Tell Mama, Money, Cabaret, and more. To further complicate the growing unrest, a relationship develops between German boarding house owner Frulein Schneider and her suitor Herr Schultz, a Jewish fruit vendor. Personal relationships, political loyalties and survival itself are tested in this American Theatre classic. Since its stage debut, Cabaret has been awarded multiple Tony, Drama Desk and Laurence Olivier Awards.Recommended for ages 13 and up Preview Performances: September 15-17, 2022Tickets: $40Regular Run Performances: September 17 October 22, 2022Tickets: $45
