September 9 marks the birthday of stage and screen star Michelle Williams, most recently seen as legendary dancer Gwen Verdon opposite Sam Rockwell's Bob Fosse in the FX limited series Fosse/Verdon. To celebrate, we're taking a look back at Williams' performance as Sally Bowles in Roundabout Theatre Company's 2014 remount of Cabaret.
The production was originally staged by Tony-winning director Sam Mendes at London's Donmar Warehouse before transferring to Broadway in 1998, starring Natasha Richardson as Sally and Alan Cumming as the Emcee. Roundabout revived Mendes' production, complete with its original choreography and co-direction by Oscar and Tony nominee Rob Marshall, at Studio 54 in 2014, with Cumming reprising his role and Williams joining the production as Bowles. She would go on to be succeeded in the role by Emma Stone and Sienna Miller before the production's closing in March 2015.
