But is the cabaret meant to be one of the cabarets that focused on satire and politics?
If we're looking to Prince, there were the numbers set in the real Kit Kat Klub, and there were the numbers set in the metaphorical Kit Kat Klub. I take the latter as reflecting Germany. The Master of Ceremonies performs for us changes in the German psyche. He is not a real Master of Ceremonies in a real cabaret in those numbers. At least that would seem to have been the intent in the original production. |
