    Description

    ITEM: This is a vintage and original production still photograph capturing a scene from the original Broadway production of "Cabaret" (1966). Photograph by Broadway photography studio Friedman-Abeles.
    Set in 1929–1930 Berlin during the waning days of the Weimar Republic as the Nazis are ascending to power, the musical focuses on the hedonistic nightlife at the seedy Kit Kat Klub, and revolves around American writer Clifford Bradshaw's relations with English cabaret performer Sally Bowles. A sub-plot involves the doomed romance between German boarding house owner Fräulein Schneider and her elderly suitor Herr Schultz, a Jewish fruit vendor. Overseeing the action is the Master of Ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub, and the club itself serves as a metaphor for ominous political developments in late Weimar Germany.
    The original Broadway production opened on November 20, 1966, and became a box office hit that ran for 1,165 performances. The award-winning musical inspired numerous subsequent productions in London and New York as well as the popular 1972 film of the same name.
    Photograph measures 10" x 8" on a glossy single weight paper stock. Photographer's ink stamp and notations on verso.
    Guaranteed to be 100% vintage and original from Grapefruit Moon Gallery.
