That's Showbiz, Kid!

Hollywood stardom - Broadway commotion - writing insecurity.

The world of performance, as so many of us know, is one of excitement and beauty - yet it is also one of struggle and self-doubt. In That's Showbiz, Kid!, join Jacob on a journey exploring this tumultuous world, reflecting on songs and stories of people who want to succeed, want to be remembered, and want to look back on life with a sense of accomplishment. Despite rejection, loss, and insecurity, we push through with a little hope, a little passion, and a lot of love for the world of performance.

This year the Cambridge University Musical Theatre Society has been transforming our 32-seater Larkum Studio into the CUMTS Cabaret - a chance to explore the enchanting possibilities when music & theatre intertwine. These shows have showcased a fantastic mix of performers, songs, and stories, and had critics raving about the ‘intimate and moving form of storytelling’, and ‘emotional highs and lows, humour, and deeply personal content’.

This production is suitable for ages 12 and over.

The ADC Theatre is Britain's oldest University playhouse, today administered and maintained by the University of Cambridge. Plays have been presented on the site since 1855, when the Cambridge University Amateur Dramatic Club (CUADC) was founded, and the society met and performed in the back room of the Hoop Inn, which stood almost exactly where the ADC Theatre stands today. Today, the ADC Theatre is the centre of University drama in Cambridge, run almost entirely by students with no Faculty involvement.

The Larkum Studio is accessed through the far side of the ADC Bar.

This venue is wheelchair accessible. More information can be viewed here.
