Cabaret At The Guthrie Theater
Adult Trips

Inside Berlin’s sultry Kit Kat Klub, a flamboyant Master of Ceremonies invites patrons to partake in a decadent underworld of musical numbers, kicklines and torrid affairs — a welcome reprieve from the ever-growing Nazi influence just outside its doors. As the political unrest nears a tipping point, the beautiful life the cabaret promises slowly begins to fade, putting love, friendship and loyalties to the test. This Tony Award-winning sensation, featuring masterful hits such as “Willkommen,” “Don’t Tell Mama” and “Maybe This Time,” is a daring and dazzling musical escape you won’t want to miss. Lunch - Is on your own - We will be stopping at Pizza Ranch in Shakopee for lunch before the show. It will be an early lunch as the show begins at 1 pm at The Guthrie.
