MARCH IS CABARET MONTH Presents:
BENN BACOT in "THE BASS OF THE BAY PRESENTS AN EVENING OF AMERICAN SONG!"
Join the Bass of The SF Bay as he explores the many facets of the American Songbook. From the swinging jazz of the 1920s to the Reefer Madness of the 30s to the sophisticated swing and love ballads of the 40s & 50s, it's an evening of showstoppers and surprises.
ABOUT BENN BACOT
With a voice reminiscent of Billy Eckstine, a little Joe Williams and a dash of Nat King Cole, Benn - affectionately known as "The Bass of the Bay" - is one of San Francisco's hidden treasures, seen throughout the Bay Area in San Jose, Redwood City, and Oakland at events as varied as Larkin Street Moon Festival, Jewish Home, Piano Fights, Cadillac Hotel, Angelica's Bell Theatre, and most recently with JB Productions' Holiday Big Band Bash at the Great American Music Hall. Bacot continues the legacy of the Great American Jazz singer, continuing to blaze the trail with a voice seldom heard today but instantly enjoyed!
MARCH IS CABARET MONTH Presents:
BODACIOUS LADYHOOD in "SONGS IN THE KEY OF FUNNY!"
Join Bodacious Ladyhood as they sing you songs of friendship, love, and all the comedy that comes with both. These ladies have 15 years of funny to share with you and you won't want to miss out!
ABOUT BODACIOUS LADYHOOD
Bodacious Ladyhood is a Seattle-based trio of women celebrating 15 years of singing together. Over the years, they have performed in cabaret clubs and on stages across the Pacific Northwest, most recently to a sold-out house at Dorothy's Cabaret in November 2017. They also performed at Chateau Ste. Michelle (and on live national radio) as guests on "A Prairie Home Companion" with Garrison Keillor. They have been called vibrant-voiced, impressive, innovative and inimitable, and a must-see. Bodacious Ladyhood is three parts harmony, one part comedy and a whole lot of fun.
MARCH IS CABARET MONTH Presents:
GRETCHEN RUMBAUGH in "BEATLES SONGSPIEL REDUX"
After their initial exploration at MICM in 2016, GRETCHEN RUMBAUGH and JOHN ENGERMAN take another dive back into the BEATLES canon, creating fresh theatrical/jazz interpretations of some of the Fab Four's most enduring songs.
ABOUT GRETCHEN RUMBAUGH
This is Gretchen Rumbaugh's third year performing in MICM, and she's tickled to be back! Cabaret being a favorite performing platform for Gretchen, she created, produced and hosted four years of CABARET CHANTEUSE, a popular monthly theatrical singer showcase in Portland. Seattle audiences may remember her as an original member of the long-running hit show ANGRY HOUSEWIVES. Some of her favorite stage roles include Mrs. Lovett in SWEENEY TODD, THE DROWSY CHAPERONE, SHIRLEY VALENTINE, Mama Rose in GYPSY, Dot/Marie in SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE, and Lucy Brown in THE THREEPENNY OPERA.

LINDA KOSUT in "FAVORITES FROM THE AMERICAN SONGBOOK"
Linda's choice of jazz, pop and folk material from the American Songbook shows her innate skill as a storyteller. "[Linda] brings her skills as an actress to her insightful interpretations of songs." - Don Heckman, The International Review of Music
