THE MARCH IS CABARET MONTH WEBSITE IS OFFICIALLY OPEN

---------------
THE MARCH IS CABARET MONTH WEBSITE IS OFFICIALLY OPEN
---------------
Someone stole our web identity (our website URL) for MARCH IS CABARET MONTH and we tried to negotiate purchasing it back but I think their offer amounted to blackmail, so you can now find MARCH IS CABARET MONTH at the new web address: http://www.MarchIsCabaret.com/ . We hope you will help promote the art & artists of cabaret by adding the phrase MARCH IS CABARET MONTH to your website, and the link. Logos are available to add to your site as well on the website.

We have already begun adding MARCH IS CABARET MONTH events to the new website. Note that the site is divided into geographical areas, and also includes links to cabaret organizations - many of whom are holding MARCH IS CABARET MONTH events of their own.

Unfortunately, the website identity theft made our MARCH IS CABARET MONTH postcards, listing to old website address, worthless, so we have to order a new batch which we hope to be sending out soon.
