Photo Flash: The Barn Players' CABARET

By:

There was a cabaret and there was a city called Berlin in a country called Germany and it was the end of the world November 6 - 8, 13 - 15 & 20 - 22, 2009

As the Nazis begin their rise to power in Germany in the late 1920's, American writer Clifford Bradshaw visits Berlin. After making a few friends and finding housing, Clifford visits the sleazy Kit Kat Club and meets an English singer, Sally Bowles. The writer and singer soon fall in love. Meanwhile, Clifford's elderly landlord, Fraulein Schneider, gets engaged to a Jewish greengrocer, Herr Schultz not an easy decision given the increasing influence of the NaziS. Boasting a courageous score, impressive lyrics and a witty and calculated book, CABARET is filled with memorable and, at times, haunting music to set the stage and bring you into the underbelly of the late 1920's Berlin...with songs like "Wilkommen", "Two Ladies", "Tomorrow Belongs to Me", "Don't Tell Mama" and the incomparable title song, "Cabaret."
