Top of the Hill – Film Show: Cabaret
We hope that you have enjoyed the festive season.
We now start our spring programme, having had some excellent events over the winter.
We will be starting with the iconic film “Cabaret”, This will be a rare opportunity to revisit this amazing film set in Germany as the Nazis were taking power.
Please join us for our first meeting to kick off our new season
Wednesday 14th January 2026
Film “Cabaret” at Shul
Film to start at 2.15 pm prompt. Please arrive at 2.00pm.
We will watch the film in true “Cabaret” style and break for tea in the middle.
Film duration: 2 hours
The plot of “Cabaret” follows American writer Cliff Bradshaw arriving in 1930s Berlin, where he encounters the captivating, hedonistic English singer Sally Bowles at the infamous Kit Kat Club, overseen by the enigmatic ‘Emcee’ (Master of Ceremonies); their tumultuous romance unfolds as they indulge in the city’s decadent nightlife, oblivious to the chilling rise of Nazism, while a parallel story shows the doomed love between boarding house owner Fräulein Schneider and Jewish fruit vendor Herr Schultz, symbolising society’s unravelling and complicity in the face of encroaching fascism.
As usual we will charge £5 to cover our expenses.
We do hope that many of you will join us for what promises to be a most enjoyable afternoon.
It is important for security and catering that you let me know that you will be coming at jandmgoodman2025@gmail.com
Best wishes,Janet Goodman
