Ariadne appears with some spectacular crimes against Fach in a degenerate cabaret.

Death of Classical's immersive, subversive, underground cabaret event takes its name from the Tiergarten—“The Garden of Beasts”—a sprawling central park in Berlin around which the murderous leaders of the Third Reich rose to power. Directed by Andrew Ousley, the program traces a path backwards in time, exploring historic moments of societal madness through music ranging from Handel and Verdi to The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Dean Martin to Max Richter, William Byrd to Brecht & Weill, with a panoply of performances that includes opera, classical, jazz, ballet, burlesque, and more.

Featuring Kim David Smith as Master of Ceremonies, Death of Classical's production takes audience members down an alleyway behind St. Paul's Carroll Street, transforming the church assembly hall into a 1920s Weimar Speakeasy, with food and drink included in the ticket price.

Shows at 5:30 and 8:30 PM
