Life is a 'Cabaret'? Really?

Unfortunately the Hypocrites production of 'Cabaret' was a bit hit or miss for my taste. This production just lagged. Were two intermissions really necessary? Also, the Hypocrites pride themselves on presenting a dark twist to the show. I don't know if they accomplished a new dark twist or not. After Rob Marshall's revival of Cabaret on Broadway back in the late 90's, it's kind of hard to reinvent the wheel after it's been on a luxury car. If before the 90's, everything was a pale homage to Joel Grey. After the 90's, everything was a pale homage to that revival. The similarities between this production and the Rob Marshall production were far too many to call this revolutionary.
