Theatre-ISU 80th year celebration features ‘Cabaret’ Broadway musical

The L.E. and Thelma E. Stephens Performing Arts Center continues to play host to Theatre/Dance ISU's 80th Year Celebration Season. The Broadway musical hit "Cabaret" comes to the Beverly B. Bistline Theatre Nov. 12, 13, 18, 19 and 20 at 7:30 p.m.

Set in 1931 Germany as the Nazis are rising to power, Cabaret is a powerful musical with incredible dance numbers and memorable hits like "Tomorrow Belongs to Me" and "Cabaret."

As this year marks Theatre ISU's 80th year on campus, the cast and crew invite you to come celebrate the history and tradition of theatre as they present, "Cabaret."

 Character Sally Bowles, made famous by legendary singer/actress Liza Minnelli in the 1972 film "Cabaret," is recreated by student costume designer Debbie Bray and played by former Theatre/Dance ISU graduate student Bridget Close.

The Bistline Theatre has been transformed into the "seedy" Kit Kat Klub as well as Fraulein Schneider's apartment and many other well-known Cabaret locations. Although Theatre/Dance ISU invites any and all who want to be entertained, please keep in mind this production contains many adult themes and is not suitable for young patrons.

Tickets are available at the Performing Arts Center Box Office, or by phone at 282-3595.  Tickets can be ordered online at www.isu.edu/tickets or can be purchased at Vickers Western Stores in Pocatello and Idaho Falls. Ticket prices are $15 for adults, $9 for children ages 6 to 12 and $7 for ISU students with valid Bengal cards.
