Eddie Redmayne and Gayle Rankin, who garnered Tony Award nominations for their performances in "Cabaret," will play Emcee and Sally Bowles until Sept. 14 of this year. Two days later, Lambert and Cravalho will take over.
Carvalho said she was "thrilled" to step into the character of Sally Bowles for her "Cabaret" run.
"I'm thrilled to join the long line of talented women who have taken on the iconic 'Sally Bowles;' most recently, the woman I watched with notebook and pen in hand, the dynamite Gayle Rankin," she said in a statement. "To join a show with so much history – and such a stellar cast and crew – means it’s quite literally an honor to get my butt kicked each week."
The story of "Cabaret," originally written by John Kander and Fred Ebb, is set in pre-Nazi Germany, where an American writer named Cliff becomes besotted with a devil-may-care showgirl named Sally Bowles, who performs at a seedy nightclub overseen by an eccentric Emcee.
