Reboot Brings Weimar To Seattle With CABARET

The award-winning Reboot Theatre Company, in association with Theatre Off Jackson, invites audiences to witness the seduction and danger of Kander and Ebb's delectable masterpiece CABARET.

This treasured Broadway classic is set in the infamous Kit Kat Klub, the hub of culture and sex in the waning days of Weimar Germany, a cultural renaissance that inspired and tantalized artists of all stripes across Europe. While an enigmatic Emcee slinks around the proceedings, wannabe starlet Sally Bowles is caught between the roaring train of oncoming fascism and the desire to be known. What would you do?

Reboot promises a night of jazz and spectacle with a reboot twist, with Artistic Director Jasmine Joshua (Reboot's Private Lives, Christmas Killings at Corgi Cliffs at Nordo; assoc director XY at Village, assist director Bliss at 5th Avenue) at the helm, music direction by Josh Anderson, choreography by Mackenzie Malhotra, and featuring Seattle's premiere klezmer band The Debaucherauntes.

The cast for CABARET includes Michelle Blackmon (Schneider), Alexei Cifrese (Kost), Ellen Dessler Smith (Schultz), Seth Lifland (Ernst), Vincent Milay (Cliff), Heather Refvem (Sally), Mandy Rose Nichøls (Emcee), and Kit Kat dancers Viviana Garza, Sara Geiger, Sara Henley-Hicks, Cammi Smith, and MJ Smith.

CABARET's production team includes set design by Jyles Rodgers, Robin McCartney designing props, Carolina Johnson designing lights, Josh Valdez designing sound, and Keegan Wreden designing costumes.

Performances run April 10-25, 2020 at Theatre Off Jackson. Tickets are on sale now at www.reboottheatre.org
