Cabaret

Music by John Kander, Lyrics by Fred Ebb, and Book by Joe Masteroff

June 7-23rd, 2024 at Umstead Park United Church of Christ

Directed by Nancy Rich. Music Directed by Katherine Anderson.

In a Berlin nightclub, as the 1920s drew to a close, a garish Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience and assures them they will forget all their troubles at the Cabaret. Employing the Emcee's bawdy songs as wry commentary, this musical classic explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Sally Bowles and Berlin's natives and expatriates as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. Spawning numerous reimagined Broadway revivals, CABARET is among the American theatre’s most enduring musicals.
