CABARET
Directed by David Mayer
Musical Direction by Kim Duncan-Denning
Willkommen. Bienvenue. Welcome to the Kit Kat Club!
The Vail Valley Theatre Company is proud to announce, David Mayer, in his directorial debut with VVTC. Join us at Chasing Rabbits, Vail, and enjoy theater like you have never experienced in our valley. With inspiration from the West End London production of Cabaret, this will not be your mama’s “Cabaret”.
SUMMARY
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. Musical numbers include "Willkommen," "Cabaret," "Don't Tell Mama" and "Two Ladies."
