'Cabaret' Review: Eddie Redmayne Takes the Kit Kat's Stage.

This article is a review of the Broadway revival of the musical "Cabaret," set in Weimar-era Germany. The production, directed by Rebecca Frecknall, stars Eddie Redmayne as the Emcee and Gayle Rankin as Sally Bowles. The review praises Redmayne's seductive performance and the visually appealing costumes and choreography. However, it criticizes the lack of chemistry between Rankin and her co-star Ato Blankson-Wood. The review also mentions the depiction of the Emcee as a Nazi sympathizer, which is a departure from previous productions. Overall, the review suggests that while the production has its strengths, it falls short in some areas. [Extracted from the article]
