Revival Cabaret

Arts at St. John's will present "Revival Cabaret," an exciting music and comedy performance, at 1516 Palisade Avenue in Union City. To purchase tickets call 1-800-838-3006.

The show promises a fun-filled, soul-stirring evening of music and comedy.

Jazz pianist Mavis Pan will perform from 6:30pm - 7:00pm during a Jazz Mixer.

Beginning at 7pm, comedy, classical music, and clowns will collide to create an unforgettable evening.

"The show's theme is an old fashioned tent revival," said the show's host Joe Kolbow. "We rehearse in the church and the show is performed there."

"And though its contents won't be religious in nature," Kolbow said, "at the end of the show, we WILL pass a collection plate."

The performance is part of the Arts at St. John's program, a venture between art-makers and supporters in the community started in April. The program aims to fill the sanctuary of St. John's church with visual and performing arts programs throughout the year.

The "Revival Cabaret" show will be hosted by Union City Comedy Duo Merril Garrick and Emmet (real-life Donovan Ensemble Co-Artistic Directors Joe Kolbow and Johnnie Niel).

Other performers include:
Jay Hebert of the Union City Opera Company;
Bernadette Lafond and Peter Borten of the Union City Chamber Players;
Melissa Mutch, spoken word;
Guinevere DiPiazza, Dance;
Caridad Rivera, Rock Music;
Karen Eltheldattar, Poet;
and Andy Sapora, Clown.

A ticket purchase includes a snack and a complimentary drink.
