Hannah Dodd has gained prominence as Francesca Bridgerton in the Netflix series ‘Bridgerton.’ A graduate in Musical Theatre & Dance from the London Studio Centre, she first rose to fame in Disney’s ‘Find Me In Paris.’ Additionally, she has appeared in critically acclaimed series like Hulu’s ‘Harlots’ and starred alongside Sienna Miller in ‘Anatomy of a Scandal.’ Notably, her portrayal of ‘Corinne Foxworth’ in ‘Flowers In The Attic: The Origins’ has also garnered attention. Her recent projects include a significant role in ‘Enola Holmes 2,’ which reached number one on Netflix in 71 countries, showcasing her impressive versatility. This engagement with Cabaret marks her debut on the West End stage.
Rob Madge is an accomplished theatre-maker and writer, starting their professional journey in theatre at the age of nine. A graduate from Sylvia Young Theatre School and the Royal Academy of Music, Rob’s one-person show, *My Son’s a Queer (But What Can You Do?)*, has enjoyed sell-out runs in various prestigious venues and earned them accolades including an Olivier nomination. Their second solo endeavor, *Rob Madge’s Regards to Broadway*, was equally well-received. Madge has been involved in numerous productions, including roles in *Les Misérables* and *Mary Poppins*, and continues to be recognized as a rising talent in the theatrical world.
For specific dates, both Hannah Dodd and Rob Madge will have alternate performances, with Anne-Marie Wojna and Damon Gould filling in, respectively. The ensemble also consists of Prologue Company members including Rachel Benson and Joseph Hardy, ensuring a vibrant theatre experience.
This acclaimed production of Cabaret opened to widespread acclaim in December 2021 and has since won seven Olivier Awards, highlighting its impact on the theatrical landscape. Furthermore, it has received multiple Critics Circle Awards and an Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Design.
The Broadway iteration of Cabaret continues its successful run at the KIT KAT CLUB, where it first debuted at the August Wilson Theatre in April last year, starring Orville Peck and Eva Noblezada.
This production invites audiences to immerse themselves in the Kit Kat Club’s vibrant atmosphere, complete with pre-show experiences such as entertainment and dining options, enhancing the overall audience experience.
Cultivating an enduring legacy, Cabaret features notable songs like “Wilkommen” and “Maybe This Time,” with music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb, based on material by Joe Masteroff and Christopher Isherwood.
The artistic direction of Cabaret is helmed by Rebecca Frecknall, with Tom Scutt handling set and costume design, and Julia Cheng leading choreography. The production’s technical aspects—lighting, sound, and make-up—are under the careful stewardship of a skilled team, ensuring a wholly captivating experience.
