Cabaret is set in early 1930s Weimar Berlin, where the thriving queer nightlife of the Kit Kat Klub stands in stark contrast to a nation on the brink of fascism. Led by the charismatic emcee and star performer Sally Bowles, the club offers a dazzling escape, while outside, the world grows darker. Amidst this turbulence, American writer Cliff Bradshaw arrives in Berlin, drawn into a world both intoxicating and dangerous. As personal and political tensions rise, Cabaret forces us to question our role as observers and how easily we can be seduced by spectacle while reality unravels.Contact’s iteration of Cabaret is an urgent reflection on the dangers of complacency in the face of growing authoritarianism, asking audiences how long they can ignore the storm outside before they find themselves engulfed in it.-----------------DATESMay 16 to 24 @ 7:30PMShow runs approximately 2h30 hours with intermission.
