Within the 1920's there was an comic downfall people weren't living the best lives, they all had little money and tried anything to just get by. I feel that going to see Cabaret for them was a way escape what was going on. While watching it they became part of it, and enjoyed the whole performance and experience. People could leave their troubles at the door come in side and be anyone they wanted to be.
However compared to modern society, it's more of a one night thing than going most nights every week. We get excited of the thought of dressing up like they use to and making drinks just like the old times. It is a very similar moto about leaving your troubles at the door and being in a world where you don't have to think about anything else. Just for society today it isn't a way of escapism it's a different way to meet up with friends and socialise.
