It's time for another interview with one of the stars of Cabaret!
Stepping up to our imaginary microphone is one of the stars of the show, Clay McKnight.
Here's what he had to say:
Q: Cabaret is a hit Broadway musical and movie - tell us the basic story.
Clay: Cabaret is an enticing look into the world at the dawn of World War II. Focusing on young love between a Cabaret performer and traveling novelist as well as a budding love between a German boarding house owner and Jewish fruit shop vendor, with a Master of Ceremonies fueling the journey.
Q: Tell us about the character you play.
Clay: In Cabaret I play Clifford Bradshaw. The young, eager, American Novelist who falls for an "Inspiring" cabaret performer.
Q: Why did you want to be part of this show?
Clay: Not knowing too much about the show except the title song there was a little bit of anticipation when starting this beautiful piece of theater. I love being on stage and have always heard rave reviews anytime someone talks about this show so I knew it must be one I need to be involved in, and how right my intuition was. Not only does the show stand alone but working with this amazing cast and creative team has been such a learning experience for me that it will be one I will never forget.
Q: Why would you recommend this show?
Clay: I would highly recommend Cabaret to the readers because of the way this show is being presented. Most of you have heard it referred to as "Environmental Theater" and that is true. It was fun as an actor getting used to using three different stages and transforming a ball room into a 1930's Berlin night club, and I think it is equally enjoyable for the audience to get swept away to the Kit Kat Klub to enjoy this show.
Q: Tell us the dates, times, and place of the show.
Clay: Cabaret will only be presented two more times. Friday and Saturday night at 8 p.m. in the newly renovated ARTS ballroom! Dinner is still available but going quickly and from hearing the crowd from this past weekend what a treat it was. Call for reservations 304.733.ARTS. CALL NOW!
Thanks, Clay!
