Cabaret
A new large-scale production of John Kander, Fred Ebb and Joe Masteroff’s timeless musical on the majestic stage of Gothenburg Opera House, Sweden.
Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome – to Berlin 1930. Spectacular show numbers, famous music and a gripping story. Night club star Sally Bowles and her troupe welcome you to one of the season’s most powerful experiences.
Cabaret was first created in 2020 but was unable to open because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“This magnificent production… it's just the right amount of sexy, crazy, challenging and gay… a truly masterful and clearly touching production.”
QX
"Sumptuous... this is how you should experience Cabaret at least once."
Svenska Dagbladet
“James Grieve succeeds strikingly well in bringing out the balance between the comic and the blackness, the frivolity and the disaster… a performance that manages to grip.”
GÖTEBORGS-POSTEN
"Cabaret 2022 feels unexpectedly vital… director James Grieve has taken everything... and created one provocatively colourful joy pill… one of the strongest I have seen."
The Borås Times
