CabaretFest 2026: Friday Night Variety Show: Sing & Swing
A rich program of Festival headliners along with numerous noteworthy cabaret performers.
Melanie Long: An American Voice–Live
She has a glorious soprano voice, a fine sense of drama and interpretation, and a surprising sense of humor.
Aaron Valentine: Who Are You Again?: Learning to Sing Through Life
His towering voice evoked the youthful Brian Stokes Mitchell and Norm Lewis and added up to a truly thrilling debut.
Frank Dain: A Celebration (24 Years in the Making)
Dain is a classic crooner—a balladeer who invested quiet but intense emotions into each of his songs.
Hannah Jane: Lady Legends of Broadway
Hannah Jane is a charming performer and has a surprisingly flexible and strong voice.
Amy Beth Williams: In Reverse
Her song choices were an eclectic mix of genres, expressions, and vocal demands.
Rian Keating: Songs From My Trunk
Keating once more proved himself an expert storyteller in both narration and song.
Steve Ross and Karen Murphy: Best of the Versed
The show was great fun for any American Songbook fan.
