CABARET in it's musical form, is based on The Berlin Stories, by famous author Christopher Isherwood, who exchanged his upper middle class life for the sexual freedom and the social liberation of Berlin in the 1930's. The musical, adapted by song and lyrics team Kander and Ebb, became a semi biographical portrait of Isherwood's life, celebrating life on the edge.
Beneath the fun and games of CABARET lies an ominous melody, providing a glimpse of vibrant Berlin's dark undercurrents during the rise of Hitler. It will walk the tightrope of pure entertainment and serious political consciousness and for this very reason, the musical continues to allure audiences.
David M. Hawkins is proud to bring this innovative and exciting new production to Australia.
"My aim is to create a new production of CABARET that engages audiences unlike any previous production, and to do that I believe we need to return to the original source material. The universal issue of the human condition at the core of CABARET comes from Christopher Isherwood and his perception of what it was like to live in Berlin during the rise of Hitler." Hawkins said.This amazing show will run from April 27th at The Athenaeum Theatre in Melbourne. Head to the CABARET website for more details.
