We are delighted to present to you the culmination of three months hard work by a group of 80 people. We are indebted to the City of Torrance and the James Armstrong Theater staff for their support and hard work in making this possible. In the midst of political turmoil and on the verge of economic collapse, Berlin in the early 1930’s remained a center of social and artistic innovation. The cabarets embraced the political satire, music, drink, and decadence of the era. Christopher Isherwood came to Berlin in 1929 to explore the city’s progressive culture and seedy underworld and several years later published his novels “The Last of Mr. Norris” and “Goodbye to Berlin” and later combined these into the single volume “Berlin Stories.” These stories provided the basis for the play “I am a Camera” and, in 1966, the Tony Award winning Broadway musical Cabaret.

  • News Release
    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 30, 2019 WILLKOMMEN! ARIZONA THEATRE COMPANY PRESENTS MUSICAL THEATRE MASTERPIECE “CABARET” Arizona Theatre Company (Sean Daniels, Artistic Director; Billy Russo, Managing Director) will bring the timeless “masterpiece of musical theatre” (Chicago Tribune), Cabaret and its powerful political wallop to the Temple of Music & Art from Nov. 30-Dec. 29 and the Herberger Theater Center from Jan. 4-26. Directed by Sara Bruner, Cabaret, which first opened on Broadway on Nov. 20, 1966 and ran for 1,165 performances, follows American author Cliff Bradshaw (Brandon Espinoza) and his encounter with cabaret performer Sally Bowles (Madison Micucci) at the seedy Kit Kat Klub where she sings. When she is fired by the club’s owner, Max (David Kelly), also her jealous boyfriend, she moves in with Cliff and the two fall in love. As the Nazis begin taking control of the German government, the atmosphere at the Kit Kat Klub and the lives of Cliff and Sally begin to change. For all the exuberant song and dance, the most powerful aspect of Cabaret remains the political wallop it delivers. At its core, Cabaret is a devastating critique of apathy and a clever and terrifying look at totalitarianism. Packed with memorable songs from “Willkommen,” “Perfectly Marvelous,” “I Don’t Care Much,” and, of course, “Cabaret,” Cabaret is a story that remains remarkably timely, particularly in today’s political environment. "Cabaret is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicals ever - and only Arizona Theatre Company, with a full live orchestra on stage - is able to bring the best in our country to work with the best here to create such a piece,” said Arizona Theatre Company Artistic Director Sean Daniels.

  • Cabaret - the Next Big Musical at the Göteborg Opera!
    2019-09-23 09:39 CEST Cabaret - the next big musical at the Göteborg Opera! Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome! Great show numbers, captivating upbeat music and a highly relevant storyline. The Göteborg Opera starts its 2020/2021 season with a legendary landmark musical - Cabaret! The musical Cabaret revolves around Sally Bowles, a star cabaret performer at the nightclub Kit Kat Club and Clifford Bradshaw, a young struggling American writer. The musical is set in the early 1930’s Berlin. The Kit Kat Club is a safe place for pleasure-seeking individuals who live out their indulgent dreams under the watchful eye of the Conferencier. Clifford finds himself drawn into this free world of extravagance. Everything is possible, everything is allowed. But happiness is a fragile thing. Nazism is growing stronger, threatening those who have become very near and dear to Clifford. The end of their free-living existence is fast approaching. The Göteborg Opera's production of Cabaret is a homage to the era of the original musical: Berlin in the 1930’s. Responsible for the production is a British team headed up by Stage Director James Grieve: “It is a huge honour to be invited to direct one of the all-time great works of musical theatre in one of Europe’s finest and most prestigious opera houses. Cabaret is an enduring and potent story of individualism and expressionism in the face of encroaching fascism. Our Cabaret will be a riot of colour and song and dance. A celebration of diversity, individuality and the power of art and music to release people from oppression and express themselves freely.

Those beautiful, intelligent, privileged, lonely women. They are absolutely crazy about me, and that’s a fact. Why? Because damn it, I like them. I pay attention to them. I listen.

  • Press Information CABARET – the Berlin-Musical
    Press information CABARET – The Berlin-Musical July 12 to Sept 15, 2019 / July 31 to September 27, 2020 Tue – Sat 8pm, Sun 7pm Berlin 1930: The American writer Clifford Bradshaw comes to Berlin, a liberal and open-hearted metropolis with a fascinating artistic scene, but crisis-torn by poverty and political unrest. He lives and writes at the Nollendorfplatz, and throws himself with the showgirl Sally Bowles into the lascivious nightlife. Berlin 2019: In TIPI AM KANZLERAMT the legendary BAR JEDER VERNUNFT production by American star choreographer and stage director Vincent Paterson is now being shown again. The story of the happy-go-lucky dancer Sally Bowles in the glittery, seamy milieu of the Roaring Twenties in Berlin, is one that still fits in perfectly to contemporary Berlin. The musical about love, passion and desperation against the backdrop of the rise of fascism is based on the autobiographical stories in the novel Goodbye to Berlin by Christopher Isherwood. The special charm of the Paterson production not only comes from the fact that the musical CABARET has returned after a triumphal tour of the world to the city of its origin, but it is also being performed in a cabaret theatre. It was in the hedonist metropolis Berlin that the British writer Christopher Isherwood (A Single Man) encountered the people who spent their time on the eve of the Third Reich dancing along the edges of an abyss. Many of them were to later become characters in his novel Goodbye to Berlin, which provided the basis for the worldwide successful show CABARET.
