ABOUT THE SHOW
The grandmother of dark comedies gets a mischievous and campy makeover. Newly engaged theater critic Mortimer discovers his two elderly Aunts are harboring some killer secrets, just as his estranged brother descends upon the family home, upending everything he thought to be true in his life. To save his family, his fiancé, and his own sanity, Mortimer must learn to navigate a new world gone mad…all while trying to make the 8 o’clock curtain. Deliciously macabre, classically winsome, and queerishly delightful, get ready for a new vision for one of theater’s most enduring comedies.

Meet OG childless cat-lady, Martha Brewster. Her co-spinster-sister Abby is brewing up a fresh batch of TO-DIE-FOR elderberry wine. Gossip-gatherings and Teddy Roosevelt appreciation meetings held weekly at their lovely Brooklyn brownstone. Won’t you join them?

Get togethers begin Sep 8. 🎟️ CenterREP.org

ABOUT THE SHOW
At the close of 1920s Berlin, hedonistic nightlife thrives, and expats, locals, and artisans coexist at the seedy Kit Kat Klub. With the political rise of the N**i party, an ominous and violent landscape emerges throughout Germany—some remain oblivious and apathetic, while others sound an alarm. With provocative grit, scintillating choreography, and a highly celebrated score, Cabaret proves itself to be one of the great theatrical works of the 20th century while never letting us forget “it can happen here."

Join us for a year of joy, surprises, laughter and drama! The Center REP 24/25 season lineup includes dazzling and groundbreaking world premieres, fresh takes on classic works and celebrated playwrights who are shaking up our national theatre scene. CenterREP.org for more info!
