When an American basketball team travels to Beijing for an exhibition game in 1989, the drama goes deeper than the strain between countries. For two men with a past and one teen with a future, the game is a chance to claim personal victories on and off the court.

Driven by rapid-fire dialogue, this perceptive new play explores the cultural and political risks of raising your voice and standing your ground.

Willkommen to the Kit Kat Klub. In this provocative, multiple Tony Award-winning musical, the euphoria of free expression, new relationships, and the seedy nightclub scene slowly fades away against the rise of Hitler and the Nazi Party. An ominous and violent situation emerges; some remain oblivious or apathetic, while others sound the alarm or flee. With grit, dance, and a highly celebrated musical score, Cabaret ultimately proclaims, “it can happen here.”
Note about intimacy:
Kit Kat Klub ensemble will engage in implied sexual situations. These roles ask the actors cast to be comfortable with sexually suggestive movement, expression, costuming, and some same-sex intimacy. The production will be led with a consent-based rehearsal process utilizing tools for consent and boundaries with each member of the ensemble appropriately.
