Music Theatre Montreal Presents CABARET, Now thru June 30

Music Theatre Montreal's production of "Cabaret" will run from tonight, June 22nd to June 30th, 2012, at the D.B. Clarke Theatre, 1455 de Maisonneuve West, Montreal. Tickets are now on sale to the general public.

Set amidst the tawdry decadence and festering anti-Semitism of Weimar Republic Berlin at the start of the 1930s, "Cabaret" follows two ill-fated relationships: between an idealistic American writer and a carefree English showgirl, their world-weary landlady and an elderly Jewish shopkeeper. A fiercely entertaining musical filled with classic songs, Cabaret is also a dark political cautionary tale that remains as startlingly relevant now as it first did over forty-five years ago.

Music Theatre Montreal is a stepping stone organization for those who are pursuing a career in the arts. It provides outreach programs that include free previews for theatre/music educators and students, discounted shows for educational institutes, and development workshops. It is a federally registered not-for-profit organization that fosters open involvement and collaboration.
