The History of Berlin’s Hotspot

The 1966 musical is based on John Van Druten's 1951 play I Am a Camera, which itself was adapted from Christopher Isherwood's 1939 novel Goodbye to Berlin. Isherwood's novel drew upon his experiences in the impoverished Weimar Republic and his close friendship with a nineteen-year-old cabaret singer.

_Cabaret_’s original Broadway production premiered on November 20, 1966, at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York City and became a huge box office success, running for 1,166 performances. This acclaimed musical has inspired numerous subsequent productions in both London and New York, as well as a 1972 film adaptation with the same title.

In the West End, the musical made its debut on February 28, 1968, at the Palace Theatre. The cast included Judi Dench as Sally, Kevin Colson as Cliff, Barry Dennen as the Emcee, Lila Kedrova as Fräulein Schneider, and Peter Sallis as Herr Schultz. It ran for 336 performances and has been revived in 1986, 1993, 2006, 2012, and 2021. The most recent West End production includes well-known songs such as "Wilkommen," "Don't Tell Mama," "Mein Herr," "Maybe This Time," "Money," and the titular number "Cabaret."
