Next! A Cabaret from the Front Lines is at Colby College's Strider Theater March 11 through March 13th at 7:30 pm. There will be a matinee performance on Tuesday, March 13th at 2:00 pm.

(Waterville, ME) You don't need to wave a French flag on a barricade while singing at the top of your lungs to be a musical revolutionary. Conceived and directed by Jonathan Mastro, Next! A Cabaret From the Front Lines, brings out the dangerous side of musical theater, taking the most thought-provoking work from Rodgers and Hammerstein, Steven Sondheim, Jacques Brel, and contemporary composers and lyricists out of the context of their original musicals and redeploying them in an original cabaret.

Individually, these songs are powerful, striking, memorable. Beside one another, they're comrades in arms, fighting social and political battles with the unconventional weapons of song and dance. Who would have thought a musical about strippers (Gypsy) could be feminist or a World War II classic (South Pacific) could attack racism? Next! will show you how.
