ADVANCE WARNING: THIS CABARET WILL BE
THE HOTTEST TICKET ON BROADWAY
I saw this production in London, so prepare yourself for the most emotionally raw production of Cabaret you will ever see as Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club — starring Eddie Redmayne as ‘The Emcee’ and Gayle Rankin as the toast of Mayfair ‘Sally Bowles’ — begins previews on Broadway at the Wilson Theatre on Monday, April 1, 2024, ahead of decadent twin opening night gala celebrations starting Saturday, April 20 continuing into the following night, with the official press opening on Sunday, April 21. In addition to Redmayne and Rankin, Cabaret will also star Bebe Neuwirth as ‘Fraulein Schneider,’ Ato Blankson-Wood as ‘Cliff Bradshaw,’ Steven Skybell as ‘Herr Schultz,’ Natascia Diaz as ‘Fraulein Kost/Fritzie,’ and Henry Gottfried as ‘Ernst Ludwig.’

Designed by Tom Scutt, the August Wilson Theatre is being radically transformed into the Kit Kat Klub with an in-the-round auditorium and sinfully dreamlike spaces which guests will be invited to explore, featuring pre-show entertainment. Experience this groundbreaking musical like never before. The denizens of the Kit Kat Club have created a decadent sanctuary where artists and performers, misfits and outsiders rule the night. Step inside their world. This is Berlin. Relax. Loosen up. Be yourself.

After purchasing tickets at Kit Kat or Seat Geek, guests will receive a “club entry time” to allow them to take in the world of the club before the show starts. Patrons can upgrade their experience at the Kit Kat Club with exclusive dining or drinks packages that allow them to soak up the pre-show atmosphere. These various upgrades offer unparalleled service and unique experiences in the heart of the Kit Kat Club. Drinks can be enjoyed before and during the show, while food will be cleared shortly before the performance begins, ensuring uninterrupted and unmissable views of Cabaret. For a complete menu and more information on the upgrade packages, please visit Kit Kat Upgrade.

The show features the songs “Willkommen,” “Don’t Tell Mama,” “Mein Herr,” “Maybe This Time,” “Money,” and the iconic title number.
