Mar 5, 2024 · To mount a revival of Cabaret in 2024, Scutt contends that “there's no other way. That was really at the headline of our mission.” There are ...
When I was 15 years old, I saw Cabaret for the first time, at a community theater in northeast Ohio. Though I considered myself sophisticated in important ways (I recall that I was wearing a wide-leg Donna Karan bodysuit that evening), my experience as a theatergoer was then limited to The Sound of Music and Ice Capades: Let’s Celebrate. I wonder if my parents, who had season tickets to the theater, knew that the show wasn’t exactly “family” entertainment. Set in 1931 Berlin as it careens toward the abyss, Cabaret depicts alternating stories. There’s the doomed romance between a fledgling novelist named Clifford Bradshaw and a young singer of supreme charisma (and mediocre talent) named Sally Bowles. And then there’s the seedy nightclub, the Kit Kat Club, which is populated with a highly sexualized cast of misfits and overseen by a ghoulish Master of Ceremonies. The show’s ethos—the glamour and terror, the irreverence, the campiness, the unreality—shaped my taste forever, and I knew that I had just experienced one of the greatest works of art ever created. I would never look at theater, or life, in the same way again.

The latest revival of Cabaret in New York brands itself as “immersive” theatre.[1] It’s one of the first things the actor Eddie Redmayne, who stars as the Emcee, mentions as he traverses the late-night talk show circuit to generate buzz. Both he and his character invite potential attendees not as mere spectators, but as guests, exhorting us to leave our troubles outside. And how can we resist; for inside the Kit Kat Club—Tom Scutt recently won the Tony for scenic design for his extensive renovations of the August Wilson Theatre—“life is beautiful, the girls are beautiful, even the orchestra is beautiful,” as the Emcee proclaims in the opening number. Before the first note is sung, the production, directed by Rebecca Frecknall, is already a maximalist, multisensory escapade. When guests arrive at the entrance, ushers hand us shots of cherry schnapps. As we walk down a dim corridor, past lounges hidden behind velvet curtains for those willing to pay progressively more for three “tiers” of “dining experiences,”[2] to what had been the theatre’s lobby, we are dazzled by sumptuous décor and pre-show programming oozing Weimar-era and ’70s disco nightclub vibes.[3]
