Welcome to opening night of Seattle's March Is Cabaret Month Festival 2016!
MARCH IS CABARET MONTH Presents: GRETCHEN RUMBAUGH in "In My Life: A Beatles Songspiel"
Cabaret chanteuse Gretchen Rumbaugh sings theatrical and jazz arrangements of Beatles songs.
GRETCHEN RUMBAUGH
Gretchen has led a very theatrical life: many stages, many lives, many friendships. Her career has blessed her with fascinating opportunities to play real-life women as diverse as Mae West, Patsy Cline, Leona Helmsley and Ann Landers in the format of the One-Woman Show; she also created the role of Wendy in the original Seattle production of worldwide hit ANGRY HOUSEWIVES. Other favorite roles: Mama Rose in GYPSY; Dot/Marie in SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE (Seattle Civic Light Opera); SHIRLEY VALENTINE; Lucy Brown in THE THREEPENNY OPERA; the Drowsy Chaperone in THE DROWSY CHAPERONE (Broadway Rose Theatre Company); and her dream role of Mrs. Lovett in SWEENEY TODD (Portland Center Stage). In Portland, where she resides, Gretchen created and co-produced the professional singer showcase CABARET CHANTEUSE, which she hosted monthly for four years at Tony Starlight's Supperclub. Musical director: John Engerman.
MARCH IS CABARET MONTH Presents: THE SIRENS OF SWING in "Still Swingin' After All These Years"
Karen Kay Cody, Joanne Klein and Jayne Muirhead reunite in their tribute to the infectious, swingin' sounds of classic vocal trios such as the Boswell Sisters.
THE SIRENS OF SWING
Sirens of Swing features three of Seattle's cabaret luminaries - Karen Kay Cody, Joanne Klein and Jayne Muirhead - with music direction by John Engerman. First produced in the '90s, their tributes to the infectious sounds of classic vocal trios such as the Boswell Sisters and the Andrews Sisters were hit shows at the Cabaret de Paris. With lush harmonies and jive rhythms, they take audiences on a musical journey back to the 1930s and '40s full of sass and romance. Additional original arrangements of tunes such as "Moonglow" and "Sheik of Araby" make this a musical evening to remember.
SHOWTIME: 7 pm. Doors at 6:00.
