Cabarets are important places of sociability in the ancient mesopotamia. Beer is breathe and sold there to consumers. Beer, which is made from barley and then, in the first millennium, also based on dates, is the main alcoholic beverage; the texts attest to different sorts, qualities, colours, some of which are flavoured with spices and aromas. Drinking beer is a sign of civilisation. In the Gilgameš eppopée, Enkidu, a wild man, lives in steppe with the animals, treats the grass and boils the water of the rivers. When he arrives with men, he eat bread and drink beer. We know two songs for drinking, which excuse the benefits of beer. According to J.-J. Glassner, one of them was singled out for the opening of a cabaret. Cabarets are attested from the beginning of the second millennium, but may have existed for a longer period. There are at least two terms referring to beverage establishments: bīt sābîm and aštammum. Only the first one is taken into account here, for the time of the Paleo-babylonian era (the beginning of the second millennium), a period which offers the most abundant documentation on the issue. Its vocabulary will first be examined, before considering the references to these establishments in the official texts (laws and editions) and in the documentation of the practice, which highlight their various functions. ; International audience ; Cabarets are important places of sociability in the ancient mesopotamia.

This is not a musical about Nazi Berlin. Instead, Joe Masteroff's book takes us into the world of the uncertain and chaotic Weimar Republic – a post-World War I, wild and art-filled nightclub scene mixed with the threat of the unknown. When the show first starts in 1929 we see how the morality in Berlin is decaying as rapidly as the democratic system – the Emcee welcomes and introduces us to the Kit Kat Klub, a place where life is trouble-free and "beautiful." And yet, as the show progresses, we see the decline of this way of life as the Emcee is slowly abandoned and betrayed by all those around him. In the months that precede the outbreak of World War II, American writer Clifford Bradshaw lands in Berlin and soon finds himself at the notorious Kit Kat Klub. There he falls madly in love with the English ex-patriot entertainer Sally Bowles. Their affair is tested as her reckless lifestyle overwhelms him and as the world around them marches towards chaos. Throughout, the Kit Kat Klub's Emcee taunts and satirizes with dazzling musical numbers in a score that includes "Wilkommen","Money (Makes the World Go Around),"Maybe This Time", and the unforgettable title tune. Book by Joe Masteroff, music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb.
