“What good is sitting alone in your room?”

This production of this dark, classy, classic musical won 11 Mercury Durban Theatre Awards when it premiered in August 2011, including Best Production of a Musical, Best Director and Best Designer! Set in Berlin’s seedy Kit Kat Klub, 1931, the show revolves around cabaret performer Sally Bowles, a faded, jaded, good-time girl, (made famous by Liza Minelli in the 1972 movie) and her relationship with young American writer Cliff Bradshaw. Adding to the divinely decadent atmosphere is German musical theatre star Sascha Halbhuber making his South African debut as the sinister, sexy Master of Ceremonies, Emcee. This production is age restricted PG 13.

“Cabaret is nothing less than breathtaking…This is not a great Durban production. It’s a production that warrants a trip to Durban.”-Shelley Seid Sunday Times

“Cabaret, shout it loud and clear, is the most divinely decadent production seen in Durban in yonks! One dearly wishes it could tour to Joburg and Cape Town to prove to all that world-class standards certainly can be achieved in dear old Durbs.”-Billy Suter The Mercury

“Director Steven Stead and the KickstArt Theatre Company deserve kudos for once again bringing a world-class production to the stage…by far the best professional production that Durban has seen in a long time.”-Latoya Newman Daily News Tonight
