LONDON : Stars from the London revival of musical Cabaret said on Wednesday the play was more timely than ever as it topped the list for most Olivier awards nominations.
Elliot Levey, nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical for his role as Jewish greengrocer Herr Schultz, told Reuters that his character's decision not to leave Berlin despite the threat of violence hit particularly close to home. "I think it's her last chance and to have that shattered by outside forces. You know, it happens all the time, all over the world, the way people's lives are ruined," Sadovy said.
