PLAYBILLAdam Lambert and Auli'i Cravalho to Join Cabaret on BroadwayThe two will make their Broadway debuts in the hit revival. Broadway's Kit Kat Club will welcome some new faces in the fall—Adam Lambert and Auli'i Cravalho are set to step into the roles of the Emcee and Sally Bowles, respectively, in Cabaret beginning September 16. Both are making their Broadway debuts in the John Kander and Fred Ebb revival for a limited engagement through March 30, 2025.
Eddie Redmayne and Gayle Rankin will play their final performances as the Emcee and Sally September 14. As previously reported, several of the company's understudies will play the roles for various performances in July and August.
The Grammy-nominated Lambert was the runner up in season 8 of American Idol. He's released three studio albums, and his hit songs include "Whataya Want from Me" (currently being sung in the musical & Juliet).
Cravalho rose to fame as the voice of the title character in the Disney animated film Moana (which she will reprise in Moana 2, to be released November 27). She recently played Janice in the film adaptation of the Mean Girls musical.
Current on Broadway as a transfer from an Olivier-winning West End engagement, the revival of John Kander and Fred Ebb's Cabaret opened April 21. Rebecca Frecknall directs. Read the reviews here. The production was nominated for nine 2024 Tony Awards, including Best Revival of a Musical. It won one, for Tom Scutt's set design.
"Growing up on the musical theater stage, it was always a childhood dream to perform on Broadway," Lambert said in a statement. "With this production of Cabaret, it finally felt like the right time to accept an invitation to make my debut. The themes of this show have always resonated with me and given the current sociopolitical climate the world is in, feel eerily timely. Eddie and Gayle have been a dream pairing and I’m looking forward to working with Auli’i to create our own magic. It is thrilling to be able to sink my teeth into this important story and collaborate with the rest of the talented artists in the cast and crew."
