In a Berlin nightclub, as the 1920’s end, a garish Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience and assures them they will forget all their troubles at the Cabaret. With the Emcee’s bawdy songs as wry commentary, Cabaret explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Berlin’s natives and expatriates as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich.
Cabaret is directed and choreographed by Ted Blessing, music directed by Kaleb Wilkening, scenic design by Douglas Clarke, costume design by Maralee Maldavs, and stage management by Barb Armstead.
