Welcome to Coronado Playhouse and this performance of Cabaret. Based on the 1939 Christopher Isherwood novel, Goodbye to Berlin, Kander and Ebb’s multi-award-winning musical is often considered the first “concept musical,” making an indelible impact on the musical theatre art form. There is no overture – just a drum roll and a cymbal crash. It deals with blatantly uncomfortable political themes, and the spoken scenes and dramatic songs that provide the exposition and plot are juxtaposed with cabaret numbers, offering social and political commentary.

For this production, we have brought together a creative dream team. Each making their CPH debuts, Director Julia Cuppy, Music Director Ian Brandon and Choreographer Jaese Lecuyer bring a combined wealth of talent, knowledge and professional experience to the Playhouse, raising our artistic expectations to an even higher level. Our incredible cast of artists and designers have been hard at work

rehearsing, researching and collaborating and can’t wait to share their work and this important piece of theatre with you.

Currently CPH is right in the middle of the play selection process for our 2020 Season. Once again, we were inundated with submissions from local directors. We appreciate your feedback on our productions and aim to present the theatre that you want. We appreciate that you care. We appreciate your loyalty and your generosity. There’s still time to subscribe to the 2019 Season for great savings and we’re always happy to receive donations so that we can keep bringing you the very best community theatre in San Diego.

Thank you for joining us at Berlin’s Kit Kat Club. Right this way, your table’s waiting…

Vanessa Dinning Member, Board of Directors Coronado Playhouse

At 5:30 p.m. on January 19, 2017, I stood in a circle outside of a theatre to launch the Ghostlight Project. Inspired by the tradition of leaving a “ghost light” on in a darkened theatre, it was a symbolic moment where theatre artists gathered to pledge to create light for challenging times ahead. And, how it was needed then and is still needed now. Since 2016, the Anti-Defamation League reported that anti-Semitic incidents of violence have increased by 60%. In 2017, this increase was seen at the Charlottesville’s white nationalist rally when a car plowed into a group of protestors, killing one person and injuring 19. And most notably, in 2018, the deadliest attack on the Jewish community in the United States happened at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburg where 11 people were killed and 6 others wounded.

We need light in all of this darkness more than ever.When Hal Prince first produced Cabaret in 1966, Prince wanted to shine a light on the injustices happening during the Civil Rights movement. In 2019, I wanted to direct Cabaret to shine a light on similar injustices happening right now. Today we constantly read about fear mongering in countries throughout the world. In 1931, the Germans heard this same rhetoric by a new political party, the National Socialists or Nazis, after many years of economic depression following World War I. We all know what happened next.In this production of Cabaret, allow yourself to be transported to the Kit Kat Club and learn more about yourself by watching the characters learn about themselves. We hope you leave the theatre remembering that history could repeat itself if we aren’t careful, observant and willing to stand up for what is right. The cast and crew of Cabaret have worked tirelessly to bring you what you will see today in order for us all to reflect on how each of us can contribute to being a light in the darkness. We thank you for being here and making our collective light brighter!Julia Cuppy
