Winner of seven Olivier Awards including Best Musical Revival, director Rebecca Frecknall's Cabaret immerses audiences in the Kit Kat Club. The show follows the patrons and performers at that Berlin, Germany, nightclub during the rise of the Nazi regime, which slowly seeps into the club that once provided an escape.
