Director-choreographer Kyle Pleasant is back with Peregrine Theatre Ensemble's main stage summer show – and he has not come to play. Pleasant's CABARET gives you a hundred clues of what's to come. Yet this ending is leaving audiences speechless. Once again, Pleasant's thoughtful twists on a classic show both modernize its relevance and deepen its resolve.
CABARET is a TONY and Oscar winning classic with music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and book by Joe Masteroff, based on John Van Druten's 1951 play I Am a Camera, which was adapted from the short novel Goodbye to Berlin by Christopher Isherwood.
Modern American drama was born in Provincetown when the Provincetown Players were founded in July, 1915. They are credited with changing American theater forever by birthing the careers of famous playwrights such as Eugene O'Neill and Susan Glaspell, who would eventually relocate to Greenwich Village to found the historic and famous Provincetown Playhouse. These revolutionary artists set the stage for Provincetown to become a hub for talented and innovative theatrical minds. Ever since, Provincetown has been an incubator for brilliant theatrical characters, many of whom would go on to become well-known on an international stage.
Founder Rosie O'Donnell and Artistic & Executive Director Lori Klinger of Rosie's Theater Kids recently held PASSING IT ON: An Evening of Mentorship on Sunday, March 24 at 7:00 PM at The Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College. Get an inside look at the event below!

When the unconquerable Billy Flynn and the ensemble sing of that "old razzle dazzle," they sing of corruption and deceit - of wicked things turned into truth when presented in just the right light. Under the pretense of being decent in a world of easy exploitation and unremorseful women, Billy's smile is a falsity he doesn't care to hide - his performance as showy as the lights which illuminate the stage. Transforming the lives of the potentially dead murderesses of Chicago into a form of entertainment for the masses is manipulation at its core - it is just one of the reasons Kander and Ebb's Chicago has remained one of our favorite musicals for so long. Now, we can all be grateful for Peregrine Theatre Ensemble's current production of the longest running American musical in Broadway history, happening right in the heart of Provincetown.
Peregrine Theatre Ensemble's production of CHICAGO is officially open in Provincetown, Mass., running through September 2nd. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
CHICAGO, the #1 longest running American musical in Broadway history will be making its Outer Cape premiere when Peregrine Theatre Ensemble opens the show at Provincetown's newly renovated Fishermen Hall.
