June 9 through 24, 2023
Welcome to the Kit Kat Club, where the MC assures that you will forget all your troubles. But can you really? Cabaret explores the dark, heady, tumultuous atmosphere of 1931 Berlin as Germany slowly yields to the Third Reich and its citizens try desperately to hold onto life as they know it. Cabaret won eight Tonys in its original 1966 run, and another four for its 1998 revival. The classic score includes “Willkommen,” “Cabaret,” and “Maybe This Time.” For mature audiences only.

About Pull-Tight Theater

In 1968, a 15-year-old Battle Ground Academy student by the name of Vance Ormes gathered several of his parents’ friends and formed the Pull-Tight Players in Historic Downtown Franklin, with a debut production of Thornton Wilder’s Our Town.

Over the years, the Pull-Tight Players garnered a reputation for excellence in community theatre. The organization staged performances in locations as varied as an old jailhouse on Bridge Street, a Holiday Inn, two schools, a Main Street loft, and even an outdoor space at Carter’s Court. Our current location on Second Avenue has been our home since 1985. As befits Pull-Tight’s own colorful history, this charming historic building has served as host over the years to its own litany of tenants, from a church and a grocery store to a restaurant and antique shop, before becoming home to Pull-Tight’s special brand of entertainment.

Pull-Tight celebrates over 50 years of providing quality theatre and arts programs to Williamson County and greater Nashville. We do this through six mainstage shows per season, as well as our Youth Actors Guild and Junior Youth Actors Guild programs. We are proud to be a vital part of this community, offering quality entertainment that uplifts, provokes thought, and brings joy to our audiences.
