Cabaret: The Illustrated Book and Lyrics
by Joe Masteroff, John Kander, Fred Ebb, Joan Marcus, Rivka Katvan, Linda Sunshine

One of the hottest tickets on Broadway last season was the breathtaking revival of the musical Cabaret, which featured incomparable--and Tony-awarded--performances by Alan Cumming as the master of ceremonies and Natasha Richardson as Sally Bowles. Cabaret is rooted in Christopher Isherwood's wonderful book The Berlin Stories, in which the late British writer immaculately captured Weimar Germany of the 1930s. After several stage and movie permutations, voila!--the current revival that set the New York theater community on its ear. The complete musical book and all the lyrics have been put together in this arresting volume, along with production and backstage photographs and archival material. What we have preserved, then, is a moment in Broadway history that will resonate for years to come. Brad Hooper
