OXFORD, Miss. – The dark and captivating story of “Cabaret” is to be re-told onstage Feb. 13 at the University of Mississippi’s Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“There are reasons why ‘Cabaret’ is one of the most popular musicals to be on stage,” said Norman Easterbrook, Ford Center director. “It’s an endearing play that has themes and relationships in it that really anyone can relate to.”<\/p>\n

Based on the book “Goodbye to Berlin” by Christopher Isherwood, “Cabaret” is set in the early 1930s as the Nazis began their rise to power. The musical tells the story of a young American writer who travels to Germany and falls in love with a nightclub singer. The show features numerous musical numbers, including “It Couldn’t Please Me More,” “Wilkommen,” “Cabaret,” “Don’t Tell Mama” and “Two Ladies.”<\/p>\n

The show is set for 8 p.m. Tickets range from $30 to $37 for various seating and $10 to $15 for UM students and faculty enrolled in the Cultural Passport Program. Tickets are available by calling 662-915-7411, by visiting the UM Box Office in the Student Union from noon to 4 p.m. weekdays or the Ford Center Box Office from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays, or by going to http:\/\/www.olemiss.edu\/depts\/<\/wbr>tickets\/order.htm<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Cabaret” first opened on Broadway in 1966 and won eight Tony awards. The musical was adapted to film in 1972 starring Liza Minnelli.<\/p>\n

Easterbrook said he is sure this revival will entertain. Its emphasis is on the storylines and character relationships in the play, much like the original 1966 musical, he said.<\/p>\n

“This is the national tour, so it’s a really fun company and a very well-practiced company,” he said. “It’s Broadway coming to Oxford.”<\/p>\n
