Caribbean Community Theatre continues its 41st season with the award-winning musical Cabaret; Book by Joe Masteroff, based on the Play by John Van Druten, and Stories by Christopher Isherwood; Music by John Kander; Lyrics by Fred Ebb
There are six more performances over the next two weekends of CABARET at CCT: Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., Feb. 13-14 and 20-21, and two Sunday matinees at 4 p.m. on February 15 and 22.
Cabaret is set in 1929 Berlin as the Nazis are rising to power. This popular musical focuses on nightlife at the racy Kit Kat Klub, and on the relationship between performer Sally Bowles and American writer Cliff Bradshaw. The Emcee, a narrator of sorts, infuses energy and dark humor into the illicit dealings of the club employees and patrons. In addition to the title tune, Cabaret features memorable songs such as “Two Ladies,” “I Don’t Care Much,” “Tomorrow Belongs to Me,” “Maybe This Time,” and more.
Malerie Gleason and Heather McRae direct the Cabaret cast of Sean Bailey, Serena Bishop, Denise Blanchette, Tyler Donohoo, Stephanie Felix, Allegra Ferreras, Claire Goodman, Clara Killy, Paul Knipler, Christine McIntosh, Eduardo Prentice, Avory Resca, Will Smith, Ethan Washburn, Maddy Wilson, and Carson Youman.
