In his book, Harold Prince and the American Musical Theatre, Foster Hirsch recalls a woman who left the opening-night performance of Cabaret, exclaiming: "It is more than a musical!" The exclamation suggests that the Broadway show had gone beyond European ethnicity and history on its way to success. And there is truth behind the suggestion. Even on the mere surface, Cabaret is not just a musical.
