I happened to be lucky enough to see cabaret last night and I thought the production was stunning. My first kudos must go to the production team as a whole and the fine direction by Paul Treasure of this impeccable cast. Tyler Jones as Emcee was so charismatic and witty that every second he was on stage was an absolute gift. He has a strong voice that only added to his sublime on-stage delivery. Breeahn Jones as Sally also had such a mighty and beautiful voice and was so controlled yet powerful in her delivery of the character. The rest of the cast was also highly impressive and a special mention is deserved to the highly capable Fraulein Schneider as well as the cabaret girls who allowed the show to be brought to life with their wonderful characterizations. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves the musical Cabaret or simply theater itself as this show is a stunning example of what hard work and an immensity of local talent can accomplish. - Theo

I think Emcee was quite average it was very charismatic but there is a line to which was overstepped making it a tad ridiculous. I think the director did quite a good job but i do feel doing caberet so close to last years one is a bit annoying ... there are thousands of musicals out there come on Perth lets start doing something new the theatre audiences want something fresh, vibrant and new. i think sally did a good job but so much more could have been brought to the table i think where Emcee way over did it Sally lacked.... combining the two would have made the perfect performer for this show.... i do feel the vocals lacked a little and the accents dropped a few times.... i hope you guys take this as constructive rather than me being a bitch ... i think your doing an awesome job keep it up ....xoxox
