Cabaret: The Illustrated Book and Lyrics
For those who just can't get enough of the Broadway revival ofCabaret, this lavishly illustrated book may be a dream come true.Cabaret: The Illustrated Book and Lyricsis a guide to the complete lyrics of the Broadway show, filled with plenty of photos from the production and scattered with notes and reviews from cast and critics alike. Alan Cumming gets the lion's share of attention here, both in striking photographs and in the form of a short diary excerpt he wrote during his NYC debut as the emcee. A few vintage photos from the originalCabaretproduction, the original watercolor costume designs by William Ivey Long, and the interior layout of the Kit Kat Klub fill out this impressively designed package. But the gorgeous shots of Cumming and Natasha Richardson really steal the show, making us remember whyCabaretis one Broadway revival that actually succeeded.--Jason Verlinde
