SHOW SYNOPSIS

 

In a Berlin nightclub, as the 1920s draw to a close, 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. Cliff, a young American writer newly arrived in Berlin, is immediately taken with English singer Sally Bowles. Meanwhile, Fräulein Schneider, proprietor of Cliff and Sally’s boarding house, tentatively begins a romance with Herr Schultz, a mild-mannered fruit seller who happens to be Jewish.

 

CHARACTERS

 

This version of 1998 Broadway revival of Cabaret features a stripped-down, gritty interpretation of the musical. The character list includes:

The Emcee

The gender-bending, elusive Master of Ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub.

Sally Bowles

A charismatic and eccentric English cabaret singer at the Kit Kat Klub.

Clifford Bradshaw

An idealistic American novelist traveling to Berlin to write and find inspiration.

Fraulein Schneider

A pragmatic and sympathetic German woman who runs the boarding house where Cliff and Sally live.

Herr Schultz

A gentle, older Jewish fruit shop owner who courts Fraulein Schneider.

Fraulein Kost

A boarder in Fraulein Schneider's house who frequently brings sailors home and sings "Tomorrow Belongs to Me" (Reprise).

Ernst Ludwig

A seemingly friendly German smuggler who befriends Cliff on the train to Berlin and later reveals his Nazi allegiance.

The Kit Kat Girls & Boys

The Kit Kat ensemble will frequently double as waiters, musicians, and patrons of the club.

 

 

See you at auditions!!
