Cabaret with Joel Grey (1988, Pro-Shot) Part 1
Переглядів 200 тис.10 років тому
This is a ultra rare recording of a performance of Cabaret during it's 1987 revival on broadway. This production stars Joel Grey as his signature role of the Master of Ceremonies. This recording dates back to 1988 and may have been recorded for the cast and production team. I'm not sure how it got out to the public. *I will take this video down if the copyright owners wish me to.
Shockheaded Peter - A Junk Opera (1998)
Переглядів 9 тис.10 років тому
Based on the infamous children's 19th Century German picture book, Shockheaded Peter is a musical from 1998 that features stories of children dying in gruesome and bizarre ways. Featuring the cult dark cabaret trio The Tiger Lillies, Shockheaded Peter has gone on to win awards and has played multiple runs up until 2006. The musical is still being produced in foreign countries including Germany,...
i love seeing this... but Liza Minelli is So Remarkable -for me... my own problem, & with respect
Man probably the weakest Cabaret ending I've seen. Staging was phenomenal but the performances were lacking any kind of weight.
This was at The Majestic Theatre, I believe. I was lucky enough to have been given a ticket from a complete stranger. I think he was trying to fix me up with his brother (who he said had the other ticket), Lol...Very delightful show. Was great to see Joey Grey in person as well as Werner Klemperer. Fantastic! Like seeing old friends...
i was operating the automation, we moved it from the Imperial to the Minskoff.
You know, this revival apparently got a lot of crap back in its day for being borderline identical to the original production. However, as someone born in 2002, I’m admittedly kinda glad at it’s mostly the same, because this pro-shot is pretty much the closest that younger generations are going to get to experiencing the OG 1967 production.
It was directed by Hal Prince, the original director!!!!
Thank F**K the new version was made. This was basically a terrible highschool version of a GREAT musical. It absolutely needed the rewrites and added lyrics/songs/scenes. It was pretty trash like this. Thank F**K Liza starred in the film or this trash would have never gone noticed anymore than this abysmal production
Saw it in LA pre-NY. Having seen the original on tour and then on B'way, this is the most lethargic performance ever and the cast has clearly been downsized. Grey looks bored and like he's walking through it - all you have to do is watch Wilkommen on the Tony Awards of 1967 - it's like a whole different person. This entire revival was just weird straight down the line - it wasn't "quite" the original and Mr. Prince didn't improve anything. He needed a fresh cast but Grey was the draw. Even the set was adjusted and peculiar.
Joel Grey is genius.
1:15:14 That sounds a lot like the original actress from the german broadcast edit. Did they contact her to come back for this?
Idk what they were thinking with this cast, especially cliff. He's terrible.
is Cliff purposely uninteresting & one dimensional... perhaps? i mean i'm not... that, uh...
These actors aren't very good imo (minus joel grey ofc). The 93 cast is much better and nothing tops the movie cast (imo).
Does sally sing like that on purpose as the character? Because looking at all other parts, this looks really rushed and emotionless
I’m surprised this version of the song was made so PG to avoid offending the parade audience, and yet some of this UA-cam comments are still offended. 😂
The fact that they preform in this parade and chose this song is so funny to me
The fact that they chose Cabaret for the Macy's parade is mind boggling considering that their main audiences are families
P.s. this was ground breaking! Tickets?$2.50!
Wouldn’t that add up to more with inflation
@@S-pw2jh still cheaper compared to today
Saw the original. I talked to fred ebb often. Go back to original if they can. Nothing is as good.
I find it hilarious that out of ALL the songs in Cabaret, they chose to do THIS one.
Who was the actor playing Bradshaw?
Gregg Edelman, I believe!
That first version of Tomorrow Belongs to Me is so haunting. It sent shivers down my spine
It’s so weird seeing other people interact with a very niche and pretty old UA-cam video. There’s a comment from fours hours ago, you think you’re the only only one who has looked at this in ages, and yet lo and behold
To be fair, Cabaret has gained some attention again because of the current Broadway revival. Makes sense that us two are not the only ones down a Cabaret rabbit hole right now!
@@CindersSpotI need to purge the Tony’s trauma from my mind.
@@CindersSpot We are not... we three are not the Only ones... Surely!
not the only one!
1:47:45 "If You Could See Her (The Gorilla Song)" - Emcee
I am surprised at Joel Grey for choosing this song which is very antisemitic.
1. Joel Grey didn’t pick the song. That would’ve been the producers. 2. Do you even understand the point of Cabaret or this song?
well he is an actor and is "his character" who's singing... also he (joel grey) is jewish lol
15:05 LETZTE ANSAGE !!!!!!
Bitte Versprechen!
Ach... Wo sind Liza!? Bitte Mit Respekt
Interesting version of the title song. It was sped up (or perhaps has been slowed down in more recent versions) and I felt it made it less impactful. I appreciated what was evoked with the way it started but think I prefer it being started as it usually is. I think this actress is phenomenal though
Yesss this original version is trash… thank goodness it was all rewritten into what we have today
I think some of the original orchestra was in the OBC from 1966 too. Very cool to see the original form of the Broadway production, before more recent interpretations. The time period prevented it from being as risque as it has become, while also being ahead of its time when dealing with the subject matter.
This version is the most loyal to what a Cabaret show would have been like, I have never been particularly fond of how the musical distorts history, there always feels like there was a version that was more loyal to Isherwood buried the original, less in the film, and almost removed by the Cumming version and the latest one.
Who is the actress singing tomorrow belongs to me?
Kost is the great Nora Mae Ling
Don’t go is such an underrated song. I wish more productions included it.
I always feel like there is an effort to removed Cliff/Isherwood from his own story to push the Nazi narrative that isn't what the source material is about.
it’s so beautiful! I adore maybe this time ofc maybe add both? Like cliff bares his heart and then Sally has what’s essentially in her head just a thought
@@S-pw2jh The Isherwood makes so much more sense, the Zionist propaganda is strong.
@@S-pw2jh ooh I love that!
44:53 Just The Right Bullets
Who plays Sally?
Is this Natasha Richardson as Sally?
no. according to wikipedia it was alyson reed. Richardson played sally on broadway in 1993.
@@aircatcher77141998*, Jane Horrocks played Sally in the 1993 Donmar warehouse production !
richardson was sally in the 1998 broadway revival, which gets confused with the 1993 production where she was played by jane horrocks. they get confused since alan cumming played emcee in both, but they're different productions
4:53 JOEL DONT SAY IT PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DONT SAY IT JOEL!!!!!
Yes the decision to change the lyrics was a very, very good one!😬
I am so obsessed with joel grey's em. Hes just the perfect one.
I'm the same way about Alan Cumming. Whatever floats ones boat.
@@JiveDadson Yes! Personally I never really vibed with Alan but he is certainly some people's favourites for a reason.
Cringing 'cause I know what Joel's supposed to be singing. Well done, but I think Regina Resnik and Werner Klemperer's It Couldn't Please Me More would've been a better choice for the parade.
That song is one big euphemism lol
@@bnicolette14 This entire show is a way to sugar up an extremely nasty situation to make it even remotely presentable to an audience. It's maybe not one huge euphemism but Cabaret is rather roundabout in most of its depiction.
❤️
23:34 I love the storytellers tounge cheeck jab at the uselessness of Frederick's cruelty
I LOVE regina resnik SOOO GLAD recording exists of her in this role as Fraulein Schneider
Isn't she fabulous? Also her turn as Madame Armfeldt in around 1990 was phenomenal in Night Music.
I'm almost scared to ask, but is there any meaning behind the acronym for Kit Kat Klub?
I've always wondered
Why would a German-based club in Europe have anything to do with them? Such an American take.
It's known that the Nazis took many inspiration from American's Jim Crow laws. Perhaps it was a nod to that
This is extraordinary!! Although not the real thing without Lotte Lenya.
And without Jack Gilford!
Loved them both on the original Broadway Cast Recording. Seems appropriate since Lotte Lenya was in the German Cabaret/theatre scene and originated the role of Jenny in the Threepenny Opera.
It’s great to see such high quality video of most of the original staging of the opening and closing numbers. Found the bartender distracting during the titular number.
--titular-- eponymous
@@JiveDadson Genuine question, don't they mean the same thing?
Please take this video down. It is a visual disaster.
You need to be Snip Snipped, nasty child.
Jake Nasso has an excellent one with English subtitles.
Unexpectedly, the combo of the two money songs, one from the stage show and one from the movie, really works quite well.
I thought it was a great addition!! Wish they used it in the current revival playing on Broadway.
Not as dark as the later revivals with Alan Cummings. But Joel has a both Tony and an Oscar for originating this role so seeing this is STILL special.
I saw both the original production and this revival. The revival was greatly inferior to the original.
@@treesny The productions were very different. Agree to disagree.
@@treesnylmao no it is not. This felt like a terrible high school production full of students who had zero idea of what this mucosal could be. What a garbage dumpster fire. Good for you for loving this BS of a turd that later became GREAT
I dig how they combined the money songs into one and added a tap section
Everyone Is Dead: The Musical.
Hahah true but come on its the tiger lillies if it was about all the kids having a nice tea party no one would go😂😂😂 but my favourite part is the mc ironically singing there's no place like home since the rich man's home was basically peters prison
I don’t care what people say. This version and the version and the roundabout theater runs are completely different in there own ways. We need a revival of this/original version
I AGREE OMG
Or maybe reinterpret the original production in a new way. For me, find a real nightclub (one large enough to accommodate lots of people , maybe 200 people) and use the original design (with the mirror hanging ) of the stage on the nightclub stage. It would incorporate both different productions while paying homage to the original 1966 production.
I'll see what I can do, just give me a few years.
@@thesamuelwattersonbro I kinda forgot I wrote this lmao (please cast me)
@@AutismThespian1993naaaah the newer version is 1000000000000000000000% better. The added grime and sex is soooo much better than this version. F off if you don’t think the new is better. This one has none of the new lyrics/lines/SEX the SHOW NEEDS. Things can evolve to be better. No need to protect a lame original when a golden new exists Edit: why in the f**k do you think the movie LITERALLY did not follow this version lmao
Wow, great to see this gem as it was performed on Broadway!
He’s 55 here, but he sounds the same as he did in the movie.
I remember being showed this when I was like 5 🧍
Colonel Klink!
Yes Werner Klemperer is in this
Uh, no... isn't this another person... uh... Character. i believe it is a Character- a different Character. Unless...
I knew that was Werner Klemperer
