IngievV Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 You've probably all read this before, but it's about Mika's performance in Cabaret: Lyndsey Turner’s impressive production of Kander and Ebb’s musical, Cabaret, reached audiences at Millicent Fawcett Hall after a near five month rehearsal period and endless amounts of hype. Not only did tickets for three available performances sell out within an hour, but an additional performance was added to cater for the high demand. This too sold out extremely quickly. Expectations were therefore high for this production, which gives musical theatre a welcome return to Westminster. John Kander and Fred Ebb’s musical, made famous by the 1972 film starring Liza Minnelli, follows the time spent by novelist Clifford Bradshaw in 1930s Berlin during the rise of the Nazi regime. Through his frequenting of the Kit Kat Klub, a sleazy night spot, he meets singer/performer Sally Bowles with whom he develops a relationship. However during the piece, the tensions of the increasingly powerful Nazi forces become apparent. Beyond its memorable tunes and witty lyrics and Broadway-esque glitz, Cabaret is a serious piece of theatre which Lyndsey Turner’s production successfully manages to highlight, as well as providing us with spectacularly good entertainment. Throughout the evening it becomes apparent that Turner is clearly at ease with the big musical numbers, from the show-stopping Willkommen (which starts the show) to the wittily danced and choreographed Don’t Tell Mama. The inventive, sassy choreography is well danced out by Kit Kat Girls, Boys and Hostesses, and their energy right through never fails. The playing space is limited, but the crowd and club scenes look very impressive too, and John Larkey and Daniel Greenwald’s lighting effectively conjured up the dark sleaziness of the Kit Kat world. The big songs, which have emerged as classics in their own right, were delivered by the large cast with punch and clarity, even though the quality of the ensemble singing sometimes dithered. One of the main problems with Cabaret as a stage musical is Joe Masteroff’s clunky lyrics, full of duff lines and malapropisms which must be just as hard to act as they are hard to hear. Masteroff’s book is also quite fragmented so that the audience and characters are jumped around from club to bedroom incoherently and with little effect other than to disjoint the production. This is not helped by dramatic scenes which occasionally lose pace through underpowered delivery and feel under-polished. Otherwise however, the well cast principals perform well. Tamsin Omond as night club gal Sally Bowles, brings tremendous presence to her scenes both as an entertainer but also as a very human, fragile character lost to herself in a world of singing, dancing and sex. Her belter voice is a strong driving force for her club numbers, whilst her rendition of the title song in which Sally breaks down is deeply moving. As her frustrated love interest, Jack Farthing is pleasantly voiced and convincing in his character, even if his relationship with Sally Bowles is never quite believable. The evening’s events are overseen by Mica Penniman’s kooky, eccentric Emcee. His lurking presence throughout is often amusing, but grows increasingly sinister as the evening comes to its climax. Strongly sung and wittily acted, Penniman’s performance seemed to delight and intrigue audiences nightly. Also impressive were Sarah Pett and Alex Bradford as an elderly couple whose sweet, growing relationship is inevitably torn apart. Their singing was especially good, and their affection believably sweet. Hal Brindley as Nazi supporter Ernst Ludwig also provided a suitably stern and menacing performance whilst also being very well sung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
