London’s theater scene ignited with excitement as Cara Delevingne, the dynamic 31-year-old actress, took her inaugural bow as Sally Bowles in the musical sensation Cabaret at the historic Playhouse Theatre. On Monday evening, audiences were treated to a spellbinding performance that marked Cara’s official stage debut, showcasing her multifaceted talents and undeniable charisma.
Among the eager spectators were Cara’s longtime friend Sienna Miller and her partner Oli Green, who were thrilled to witness this monumental moment in her career. The theater buzzed with anticipation as the lights dimmed, and Cara stepped into the spotlight, embodying the enigmatic allure of Sally Bowles with effortless grace and flair.
In a recent interview with ES Magazine, Cara candidly addressed the backlash surrounding her casting and dispelled any assumptions of preferential treatment. “Even if I did the best I possibly could, and even if that was really good, people are still going to be like, ‘She doesn’t deserve to be here,'” she remarked, highlighting the challenges she faced despite her undeniable talent. “You know, I auditioned like anyone else [so] it’s just annoying, but I have to tune that out.”
Reflecting on her decision to relocate to Los Angeles, Cara opened up about the relentless scrutiny of the press in London. “The press and journalism can be really rough [here]… You’re either a person that people want to succeed or you’re not,” she shared candidly. “And I think once you are one of the latter, you can’t really get out of that. So I was like, ‘The only thing I want to do is leave.’”
With her triumphant debut in Cabaret, Cara Delevingne has proven herself as a force to be reckoned with in the world of theater. Her electrifying performance has garnered widespread acclaim and affirmed her status as a versatile talent capable of commanding the stage with unparalleled brilliance. The stage is set for her to leave an indelible mark on the world of theater, solidifying her place among the brightest stars of her generation.
