Come to the cabaret, old chum...

Opening Night!!!!

Hey all of y'all out there. Tonight, Tomorrow, and Saturday we are performing the hard worked on Cabaret!The times are 8 o'clock every night with a midnight show on Friday. It is a great, fun, and contemplative play. Really great story and great music! I would rate it about pg-13 mainly for some language and scantily clad dancing girls (on par with Chicago). I personally invite all my Wesleyan, Ga Tech, etc. friends on LJ and hope you can come! I know it is near finals, but if you can afford the break, I would suggest you forget your troubles, and enter the German Cabaret on the eve of WWII....

What good is sitting alone in your room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.

Put down the knitting,
The book and the broom.
Time for a holiday.
Life is Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.

Come taste the wine,
Come hear the band.
Come blow your horn,
Start celebrating;
Right this way,
Your table's waiting

No use permitting
some prophet of doom
To wipe every smile away.
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret!

I used to have a girlfriend
known as Elsie
With whom I shared
Four sordid rooms in Chelsea

She wasn't what you'd call
A blushing flower...
As a matter of fact
She rented by the hour.

The day she died the neighbors
came to snicker:
"Well, thats what comes
from to much pills and liquor."

But when I saw her laid out like a Queen
She was the happiest...corpse...
I'd ever seen.

I think of Elsie to this very day.
I'd remember how'd she turn to me and say:
"What good is sitting alone in your room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret."

And as for me,
I made up my mind back in Chelsea,
When I go, I'm going like Elsie.

Start by admitting
From cradle to tomb
Isn't that long a stay.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Only a Cabaret, old chum,
And I love a Cabaret!
