"CABARET" - IN CONCERT at West Bay Community Theater

West Bay Community Theater will present an in-concert production of the classic
Kander and Ebb musical CABARET on Saturday, August 12th at 8pm on the North Kingstown Town Beach.

WBCT’s production will focus on the music of the piece with select staging, aided by multimedia support. For
those who attended WBCT’s production of HAIR-IN CONCERT last August, they know what a special
experience a WBCT show on the beach can be. Moonlight on the water, food trucks, a festive audience, and
some of the best voices in local theater all in one special evening in Wickford. Audience members are
encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, and anything else to make an August night on the beach
comfortable.

In a Berlin nightclub, as the 1920's draw to a close, a garish Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience
and assures them they will forget all their troubles at the Cabaret. With the Emcee's bawdy songs as wry
commentary, CABARET explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Berlin's natives and expatriates as
Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. Cliff, a young American writer newly arrived in Berlin, is
immediately taken with English singer Sally Bowles. Meanwhile, Fräulein Schneider, proprietor of Cliff and
Sally's boarding house, tentatively begins a romance with Herr Schultz, a mild-mannered fruit seller who
happens to be Jewish. Musical numbers include “Willkommen,” “Cabaret,” “Maybe This Time,” “Don't Tell
Mama,” “The Money Song,” and "Two Ladies."

This version of CABARET is based on the 1998 adaptation, licensed through Tams-Witmark/Concord
Theatrical and appears on their list of upcoming productions of CABARET across the nation.

CABARET contains adult themes and some adult language.
