Panelists said of CABARET: “An excellently produced and performed production…Fantastic.” Panelists were particularly impressed with featured actress Mary Gordon Murray as Fraulein Schneider, “a standout, who was powerful and believable” and gave “a moving performance”. The chorus members were also praised for their outstanding dance and movement, aided by Marcia Milgrom Dodge’s often “inspired” and “amazing” choreography. Finally, Angela Wendt was commended for her “striking” costumes: “Pearls, fringe, sequins and endless details made the costumes in this production simply stunning.”
CABARET, the renowned Kander and Ebb musical set in the Kit Kat Klub, a seedy pre-war nightclub in Berlin, chronicles the growing prejudice in Germany through the eyes of a visiting American writer.
