Trips
Cabaret
It’s the early 1930s in Berlin, and life is changing. On the
horizon is an ugly and dangerous threat, but that’s no
concern for sensational cabaret singer Sally Bowles whose
only goal in life is to have a good time. Sally soon finds herself
living with a young writer visiting from America to work on a
new novel. While their relationship moves beyond just being
friends, around them the lives of citizens go from ordinary
to a nightmare. Will Sally recognize her own selfishness,
or will she look to the ground as the Nazis steamroll over
everything she holds dear? Enjoy extraordinary songs,
universal appeal and a spellbinding story that still holds true
in today’s world. Cabaret is exactly what musical theatre
should be: entertaining, enlightening, provocative, edgy
and a continuing reflection of our own lives. Suggested
Rating: PG-13. Lunch before the show is a catered buffet by
Enticing Cuisine in the Meyer Ballroom. Trip includes lunch, ticket
and transportation. Deadline: 1/19 (DR)
