In 1972, it was turned into a film, starring Liza Minnelli, Michael York and Joel Grey. It went on to be one of the most decorated musical films of all time, winning 8 Oscars and 7 BAFTAs.

Kenwright's 2006 West End revival at the Lyric Theatre won two Laurence Olivier awards and his 2012 run at the Savoy Theatre was nominated for a further three, including 'Best Musical Revival'.

This new touring production will be directed by National Theatre Artistic Director Rufus Norris and choreographed by Olivier Award winner Javier de Frutos.

It features show-stopping choreography, dazzling costumes and iconic songs, including ‘Money Makes The World Go Round’, ‘Maybe This Time’, ‘Cabaret’ and more.
