Cabaret is back on Broadway, and feel free to tell Mama, and everyone else. Performances of the Roundabout Theatre Company revival begin March 21 at Studio 54, with opening night set for April 24. The cast is led by Academy Award nominee Michelle Williams, making her Broadway debut as Sally Bowles, and Alan Cumming, reprising his Tony Award-winning role as the Emcee.
Cabaret marks the return of director Sam Mendes and co-director/choreographer Rob Marshall, who are recreating their Tony Award-nominated direction and choreography of the 1998 production. In addition to Williams and Cumming, the show features four-time Tony nominee Danny Burstein, two-time nominee Linda Emond, Bill Heck, Aaron Krohn and Gayle Rankin. The Kit Kat Klub boys and girls (a.k.a. the ensemble) are comprised of Will Carlyon, Kaleigh Cronin, Caleb Damschroder, Benjamin Eakeley, Andrea Goss, Leeds Hill, Kristin Olness, Kelly Paredes, Jessica Pariseau, Dylan Paul, Jane Pfitsch, Evan Siegel and Stacey Sipowicz.
Cabaret transforms the legendary Studio 54 into the Kit Kat Klub, a seedy 1930s Berlin nightclub where a young English cabaret performer (Williams) encounters an American writer (Heck), under the watchful eye of a zealous Master of Ceremonies (Cumming). The John Kander and Fred Ebb musical features such iconic tunes as "Willkommen," "Don't Tell Mama," "Maybe This Time," and "Cabaret."
