Cabaret (1972)

The Projectors

Let me tell you something about life, old chum. It’s only a cabaret. Kill Nazis. November is for the musicals and we’re RAISING THE CURTAIN & BELTING THE CHORUS all month long and it’s time to hit up a Bob Fosse joint in this iconic adaptation starring stage legend and Queen of the Theatre Nerds, Liza Minelli. Bob is learning this shit for the first time but you theater nerds already know about the most prolific film in Minelli’s life and career and it’s none other than Fosse’s 1961 hit “CABARET” also starring Michael York, Joel Grey and more. There is no richer era to strike negative social parallels than early to mid-century Germany. The Kit Kat Club seems like a grand ‘ol time but it’s only a matter of time before the audience turns on their entertainment. In the thick of it is Sally Bowls, lore accurate OG Manic Pixie Dream Girl, and her timid soon-to-be lover, Brian. It’s a freewheeling, song slinging, sugar baby life. Love has its ups and downs and sometimes you end hooking up with your girlfriend’s sugar daddy. It’s a rather unique story to tell to a broad audience in 1972 (and before). Let’s talk Sally Bowls, old chum. It’s only a cabaret and here’s a link we found: https://archive.org/details/cabaret-1972_202208
