It debuted at the Barrow-Civic’s Little Theatre in 2012 under the direction of Ted Smith. Tammi Dahl directed the production in 2013 and 2014, and Nathaniel Licht in 2015. The show took a hiatus in 2016 but resumed in 2017 with “Liberty Cabaret Returns: Greatest Hits,” an original script written and directed by Casey McVay.

“It’s an honor to lead in the creation of “Liberty Cabaret.” Since the start in 2012, it’s always been about a group of people coming together for a great adventure. This particular show has a storyline to showcase just that. Plus, we’ve added some fun fundraising activities, such as movie trivia and 50/50 raffle, during the shows to raise funds for necessary upgrades to the venue including improvements to the sound and light systems, stage, and more. Audiences will enjoy all the throwbacks to iconic movies from the 1980s-1990s, and we hope they will be laughing and singing along with us right here in this special space within the heart of downtown Franklin” said McVay.
