THE MONMOUTH COMMUNITY PLAYERS will perform “Cabaret” through Jan. 31.
Wilkommen to Monmouth Community Players’ mid- season musical “ Cabaret,” written by John Kander, Fred Ebb and Joe Masteroff. The show is directed by Vincent Ratsavong and musically directed by Monmouth native Rebecca Caron.
The story takes place at the infamous Kit Kat Klub, where the Emcee (Adam P. Blais), Sally Bowles (Lindsay Cagney) and a raucous ensemble (Michael Litchfield, Christine Gill, Sarah Wing, Olivia Mayo, Becca Hodgdon, Aaron Louque, Brandon Chaloux, Jeffery Fairfield and Cody Watson) take the stage nightly to tantalize the crowd — and to leave their troubles outside. When American writer Clifford Bradshaw (Derrick Lacasse) travels to Berlin in search of inspiration, he finds it in Sally and they begin an affair. However, outside their door, the Nazis’ impending rise to power heralds a brutal end to their decadent way of life. The cast is rounded out by Fraulein Schneider (Lucy Poland), Herr Schultz (Ray Fletcher) and a young boy (Corbin Bourgoin).
Performances will run through Jan. 31. Tickets are $14 for general admission, $12 for students and seniors.
