Cabaret was the most challenging poster designed for the 2025 season. That is because it was too brazenly sensual. The splits leg poses shown in this ad were part of the initial design, but after several passes the Cabaret title came down to try and cover the hips of the dancers.
I am rather sad to see that the chair legs were lifted upwards in this add making it seem like the dancers are floating. That might be an interesting effect if that was my intention. I am sure most people don’t notice that the chair legs to don touch the stage.
The Orlando Shakes will take you back to Berlin in the late 1920’s Kit Kat Club, where a spotlight shines on the colorful, gritty, and hedonistic lives found inside. Don’t miss this landmark musical that is filled with iconic songs and electrifying dance, including Wilkommen, Don’t Tell Mama, Maybe This Time, Money and the title number Cabaret. It’s an astonishing and eye-popping tale that has renewed resonance in today’s political climate.
The show runs between February 5, and March 2, 2025. Tickets online.
