Life Is A Cabaret Old Chum!
Set in 1929 – 1930 Berlin during the twilight of the Jazz Age as the Nazis rise to power, the musical focuses on the hedonistic nightlife at the seedy Kit Kat Klub and revolves around American writer Clifford Bradshaw’s relations with English cabaret performer Sally Bowles. The original Broadway production opened on November 20, 1966, in New York City and became a hot box office hit, with eight Tony Awards.
Step out of the modern world and back in time to the divinely decadent Kit Kat Klub of prewar Germany, where the music is tantalizing and the drinks are plentiful. Within the club, lives intertwine as Clifford Bradshaw, an American writer re-enacts his life there as if it all took place in a Cabaret and all the people he met were Cabaret Performers. “Life is a Cabaret, old chum, so come to the Cabaret!”
