Roundabout's success continued as critically acclaimed productions of 1776 and A View from the Bridge both transferred from Roundabout's Stage Right to the Gershwin and Brooks Atkinson Theatres, respectively, on Broadway. For the first time, Roundabout mounted an off-site production, transforming the Henry Miller Theatre into the seedy Berlin Kit Kat Klub for its groundbreaking production of Cabaret. It then transferred to the legendary Studio 54 in November of 1998. Cabaret had a glorious six year run after winning six Tonys® and marked the New York directorial debuts of future Oscar winners Sam Mendes (American Beauty) and Rob Marshall (Chicago, the movie).
Roundabout continued its work on Broadway with Little Me starring Martin Short, The Lion In Winter starring Laurence Fishburne and Stockard Channing, and The Rainmaker starring Woody Harrelson. Roundabout's subscribers now numbered an astounding 45,000.
