Bringing together a stellar creative team lead by Zen Zen Zo Artistic Director Lynne Bradley, this production will be a no-holds barred portrayal of the politics and sexuality that characterised the subversive and decadent cabarets of the last days of the German Weimar Republic.
Featuring award-winning Brisbane singer/songwriters Emma Dean as Sally Bowles, and Sandro Colarelli as the Emcee, the music will be played live by an outrageous Salon Orchestra – led by musical director extraordinaire, John Rodgers.
Drawing from Zen Zen Zo’s infamous dance-theatre style (which combines Butoh, Burlesque, Contemporary, Camp), the Cabaret chorus will be made up of Zen Zen Zo’s senior company members. Together they will bring to life the colourful cabaret world populated by artists, gypsies, queers, Jews – the marginalized “Others” that found a home in 1930s Germany before Hitler came to power.
