This is a ultra rare recording of a performance of Cabaret during it's 1987 revival on broadway.
This production stars Joel Grey as his signature role of the Master of Ceremonies.
This recording dates back to 1988 and may have been recorded for the cast and production team. I'm not sure how it got out to the public.
*I will take this video down if the copyright owners wish me to.

This is an archival recording that as somehow been leaked. Every Broadway show is recorded and archived.

@re-huvane5622 5 лет назад

This is not the one in the NYPL thought. Probably, it was made for the cast and company. Not sure though.

@lilyhogwart 4 года назад

William Blake Hall, every Broadway show is not recorded for the Theatre on Film and Tape archive of the Library for the Performing Arts. Some are, some aren't.

@shawnmulligan2894 3 года назад

The shows began being filmed by the NYPL TOFT collection in the 1970s, with some of the first ones filmed being A Chorus Line and the first national tour of Company (both in black and white), but I'm not sure how many others were filmed in the 70s and 80s. I know Sweeney Todd was filmed.

Or maybe reinterpret the original production in a new way. For me, find a real nightclub (one large enough to accommodate lots of people , maybe 200 people) and use the original design (with the mirror hanging ) of the stage on the nightclub stage. It would incorporate both different productions while paying homage to the original 1966 production.

I think some of the original orchestra was in the OBC from 1966 too. Very cool to see the original form of the Broadway production, before more recent interpretations. The time period prevented it from being as risque as it has become, while also being ahead of its time when dealing with the subject matter.

@Gee-xb7rt Месяц назад

This version is the most loyal to what a Cabaret show would have been like, I have never been particularly fond of how the musical distorts history, there always feels like there was a version that was more loyal to Isherwood buried the original, less in the film, and almost removed by the Cumming version and the latest one.

This one has the original songs, unlike the Mendes version which, like most revivals of shows after the movie, replaces some of the songs with those from the movie.

Not really. The song “why should I wake up” was replaced by “don’t go” and the “sitting pretty” was mixed in with money. Also, “Meeskite” is missing.

I've adopted music, e.g piano, composition, opera etc. amongst various abilities since early youth, being in later 50's now. I admit, my heart gives 'Cabaret' a space - the same year Destiny urged me to stumble into Mr. W. Klemperer, he emerged conveying joy, a magical force- sharing of art began, and after, a special unity. I'm holding close a souvenir- a wonderful gem.......

If you know any place where i can see the 1998 version online, that would be great! And, as for preferences, I much rather the 1993 west end procution, which was basicly the predecessor of the 1998 ( With Alan Cumming playing the role of Emcee for the first time, I think)

I’m still planning to go the Broadway production and hopefully my expectations will be defied.

@wonderlasting 7 лет назад

Very curious. I just saw the Mendes version on the Broadway tour last night. A very different show. Although this classical version is the true version and characteristic to the German Expressionism of the time it portrays, do you think Mendes' revival can be considered more of a much needed modern adaptation, especially appropriate for Studio 54 and yielding to 21st century audiences? Plus, some of the acting appears forced. How many shows has this cast done up until this recording? Can you say burn out Fräulein Schneider?

@warrenmoore4743 7 лет назад

the Studio 54 revival was truly a modern interpretation. The expressions would not have been expressed in the early 30s the extreme way the S54 did (esp. some of the sex scenes...that would not have happened, even in that liberal time period)

@edwardiliffe6794 6 лет назад

I disagree with this comment. If you study the Weimar period sex clubs and nudity on stage within cabarets were a prominent part of the liberalism of the era. I believe that there was very little left to the imagination and that this was an era of excess. A major exhibition of works from the Weimar period 'Glandz & Elend' demonstrates the prominence of outrageous liberalism within this sector of society.

@stanochocki8984 6 лет назад

I agree with your statement. Not I have lived through the Weimar Republic, have known, in my time, people who did. Several British and Americans and a number of Germans. And yes, the 'under-belly' of Berlin Nightlife, was quiet exhibitionist and 'in-your-face'. One should also note the 'risque' Outness/Gayness of the Social attitudes in the Nightlife and upper Society in France, and particularly--Paris. LOL. 'going bottomless' i.e. naked from the waste down to parties or Clubs, was a common sight.

Likewise. And that includes the original sets by the great Boris Aronson. His scenic design and the presence of Lotte Lenya in the cast anchored the show in something deeply authentic.

@smurf902 Месяц назад

Was the show much different? I think this one is much closer to the original than the 1993/1998 revivals or the movie, which completely cut out the entire Schneider portion.

@treesny Месяц назад

@@smurf902 As I remember it, it wasn't that far off in general from the original production -- both were directed by Hal Prince, after all -- but scenically it had a distinctly cheap look compared to the brilliant Aronson original, the casting of opera singer Regina Resnik as Fr. Schneider was only a partial success, and the incorporation of some material from the film -- the two "Money" numbers were combined, I recall -- wasn't a plus. Incidentally, the movie script was NOT an adaptation of the Broadway one, but entirely new, with quite different plot lines and (of course) with all of the non-cabaret numbers omitted entirely. (Exceptions: "Tomorrow Belongs to Me" takes place in a beer garden, and "Married" is heard briefly on the radio -- in German!).

It's a shame the production was shot this way- it really is an excellent production.

@lilyhogwart 4 года назад

This clearly was not pro-shot in the sense of being intended for television or a home-video format. "Pro-shot" is a term people often use for videos shot from a tripod, usually from the back of the orchestra, with closeups and steady camera work, differentiating them from videos made by audience members holding camera in their hands.

@nextgensex4786 3 года назад

It was a pro recording bc the video was on tripod and music was recorded directly from soundboard. It doesn't mean it was a professional recording for use beyond the production's actors, directors & staff, usually stored in the theatre archives (until someone leaks it). Lol
