ESU Theatre Department's 2023 Spring Productions
Cabaret
April 20-23
Smith-McFarland Mainstage Theatre
Enter the avant-garde art scene of 1930s Berlin—a pulsing subterranean culture where people go to escape a crumbling culture and ignore the rising political tide. Into this world enters Clifford Bradshaw, a struggling American writer looking for inspiration for his next novel.
On his first night in Berlin, Cliff wanders into the Kit Kat Klub, a seedy nightclub overseen by the strange, omniscient, and gender-bending Master of Ceremonies, “the Emcee.” Here, Cliff meets Sally Bowles, a vivacious, talented cabaret performer, and an utterly lost soul.
Sally and Cliff begin a relationship that will profoundly change both of them. With a distinctly Brechtian dose of provocation and a score that has become a classic American Musical, Cabaret is a fierce, meaty musical that pushes the boundaries of the form.
