Running May 26 - June 23, 2024, matinee and evening performances available

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.”

approx. 2 hours 45 minutes, with one intermission
