Bob Fosse's 'Cabaret' Restored To Original Glory

Set in 1930s Berlin, with German life darkening under the Nazi Party's rise, the film was based on the 1966 Broadway musical adapted from Christopher Isherwood's short novels.


Interestingly, in France at first the word “cabaret” alluded to any establishment that served alcohol. However, cabaret first appeared in 1881 in the Monmartre area of Paris at the Le Chat Noir saloon. Artistic types, such as poets, composers and artists gathered to share their work, and see people’s reactions. This informal setting was to be the launch of the long rich cabaret history.

In the United States cabaretsbegan in the 1910s with the first 

European type establishment.
