The scene is a night club in Berlin, as the 1920's are
drawing to a close. The Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience
to the show and assures them that, whatever their troubles, they
will forget them at the Cabaret. His songs provide wry commentary
throughout the show. On the train to Berlin we find Cliff, a young
American writer, and Ernst, a German who surprises Cliff by
putting his briefcase among Cliff's luggage at the German
border. History is in the process of being made. Musical numbers
include "It Couldn't Please Me More", "Willkommen", "Cabaret", "Don't
Tell Mama" and "Two Ladies." We find Cliff on the train again, now
leaving Berlin alone. He writes about Sally and the people of
Berlin leading up to the Third Reich. It has been a tumultuous and
heartbreaking era.
Note: This show has adult themes.
