Ghent Playhouse: Cabaret

It’s been a cold and snowy March, but The Ghent Playhouse is about to heat things up with Cabaret!

Set amid the backdrop of 1930’s Germany as it begins to slide toward the Nazis, an American writer living in Berlin, meets an eccentric dancer at a decadent and vulgar cabaret called The Kit Kat Club, who changes his life forever.  Tony Award-winner for Best Play in 1967 and again in 1998 for its revival.
