Winner of 8 Oscars, including Best Director (Bob Fosse), Best Actress (Liza Minnelli) and Best Supporting Actor (Joel Grey), 3 Golden Globes and 6 BAFTAs, and widely regarded as one of the finest Hollywood musicals of all time, Cabaret first burst onto cinema screens in 1972, wowing audiences the world over. Adapted from John Kander and Fred Ebb's acclaimed 1966 Broadway stage production, itself inspired by Christopher Isherwood's autobiographical 'Goodbye To Berlin' and the 1950s play (by John van Druten) and movie I Am A Camera, Cabaret documents the exploits of naive but irrepressible American singer Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli) and her friends, set amongst the moral decadence and sexual ambiguity of pre-war Berlin. Director Fosse's unique razzle-dazzle choreography provides a series of sexy, show-stopping dance numbers highlighting a host of classic songs, including: Wilkommen, Mein Herr, Money, Money, Tomorrow Belongs To Me and the title song.
