Cabaret15

Directed by Bob Fosse | USA | 1972 | 2h 3m | Starring Liza Minnelli, Michael York, Helmut Griem, Joel Grey, Fritz Wepper

In Berlin 1931, performers and audiences at the infamous Kit Kat Club revel in a life of music, boozing, and dancing. Into this heady world arrives a British academic who quickly falls head of over heels for a starry-eyed American performer. Set against the backdrop political turmoil in Germany’s Weimar Republic, Bob Fosse’s ground-breaking musical romance turns fifty years old this year.

‘All are guaranteed to leave Sally Bowles’ words ringing in your ears as the credits roll: ‘Divine decadence, darling!’’
★★★★★
Jamie Russell, BBC

Plan your visit

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road. We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
