Pics From The New WEST END Cabaret Revival.. — Page 3

Apparentely it's not a good revival. There's uncalled for nudity.

Check the Westend board, people there and on other boards are saying it's awful. The costumes and sets are not period at all they say.

And it's not just raunchy costumes, it's nudity. It's bare breasts, etc.

Anyway, I hate that this seems to be a competition of which Cabaret revival can be the raunchiest.

Thanks, I'll go read some of it.

It's a shame that that's what it's become, because a raunchy Cabaret, IMO, can be a great thing, but when you go too far, it's kind of tacky and absurd. The pictures alone made me think this production was trying too hard, which is really unfortunate for such a beautiful show. I don't think nudity has NO place in a show like Cabaret, but obviously it very much depends on how, when, and why it's done. I mean, it's a show about very gritty, dirty things, but I can absolutely see where that could be an artistic vision gone wrong. I think the fact that it's very raunchy would bother me less than that it's losing regard for the fact that it IS a period piece.

The Hal Prince production of Cabaret managed to be gritty, sexual, but still classy.

Same for the masterpiece movie by Bob Fosse.

I was excited by this revival, until I heard more about it.


Now control your bitchy attitude. You are so unpleasant. You make it sound like you know me, but you haven't the slightlest clue.

*&&!

I actually wanna see Production Photos not Publicity Photos. Otherwise, the shiw looks interesting!
