Inside Berlin’s sultry Kit Kat Klub, a flamboyant Master of Ceremonies invites patrons to partake in a decadent underworld of musical numbers, kicklines and torrid affairs — a welcome reprieve from the ever-growing Nazi influence just outside its doors. As the political unrest nears a tipping point, the beautiful life the cabaret promises slowly begins to fade, putting love, friendship and loyalties to the test. This Tony Award-winning sensation, featuring masterful hits such as “Willkommen,” “Don’t Tell Mama” and “Maybe This Time,” is a daring and dazzling musical escape you won’t want to miss. 

• Cabaret quickly became a critical and box office success, running on Broadway for 1,165 performances in its original production. It won the 1967 Tony Award for Best Musical and Grammy Award for Best Score.
• Kander and Ebb based their musical on the play I Am a Camera by John Van Druten, a British-American playwright best known for romantic comedies. Van Druten in turn based his play on The Berlin Stories by British-American novelist Christopher Isherwood who, like Clifford, was living in Berlin in 1930.
• In an interview with Broadway Direct in 2024, Kander praised Cabaret's ongoing relevance, stating, "When we first did the show, it was only 20 years after World War II, and it was reflective and a history lesson. But ever since then, and particularly now, it seems like we're doing it all over again."
