Cabaret Show

Cabaret is a mix of entertainment, such as comedy, song, dance, and theater, this show is usually perform in the restaurants or nightclubs where the audiences are sitting at tables with their dining and drinks. Cabaret is also regularly perform about political satire and light entertainment for the audience, as a result, this performance was unique, funny, and interesting, especially for the adults. Furthermore, "Cabaret" is also a title of the movie that made in 1972, played by Liza Minelli, Michael York, Helmut Griem, and many more. This movie was set on 1930s in Berlin, where political unrest racks the country, the economy was destroyed, and millions of unemployed people. In this case, many people join the cabaret show in the "Kit-Kat Club" where they perform on the stage. On the other hand, Indonesia also had their cabaret show that shows on Metro TV channel, every Friday night in 22.00 o'clock. I admitted that this kind of show was very interesting and also funny; all the characters had an excellent act and expression to deliver their metaphor and satire towards the political issue in Indonesia.

"Cabaret" is an interesting movie. It was directed by the great choreographer, Bob Fosse. Joel Grey plays the Master of Ceremonies. I haven't seen that film in many years but thanks for the reminder. Hope I can see it again soon.
I also use and like imdb.com. I think it's a great and very helpful website with info about lots of films. Another good movie site is rottentomatoes.com.They collect movie reviews, then rate the films based on the reviews. They gave "Cabaret" a rare 100%.
