4 PM | CABARET - THEME NIGHT

1972 | Musical/Romance| 2h 4m | M

The incomparable  Cabaret has been chosen as our latest THEME NIGHT.  "Cabaret is the musical for people who hate them".

In Berlin in 1931, American cabaret singer Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli), performer at the Kit Kat Club, meets British academic Brian Roberts (Michael York), who is finishing his university studies. Despite Brian's confusion over his sexuality, the pair become lovers, but the arrival of the wealthy and decadent playboy Maximilian von Heune (Helmut Griem) complicates matters for them both. This love triangle plays out against the rise of the Nazi party and the collapse of the Weimar Republic.

The film brought Liza Minnelli, daughter of Judy Garland, her own first chance to sing on screen, and she won the Academy Award for Best Actress.  The movie launched her as a superstar.  In fact, Cabaret earned a total of ten Academy Award nominations (winning eight of them) and holds the record for most Academy Awards for a film that did not also win Best Picture.

"Minnelli has such gaiety and electricity that she becomes a star before our eyes"

Come to the Cabaret, old chum, 4pm for a 5pm start.  The ticket price includes two drinks, and nibbles before the movie.  A chance to Dress to Impress.
