SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT THE MARCH IS CABARET MONTH GALA:

MARCH IS CABARET MONTH
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT THE MARCH IS CABARET MONTH GALA: I waited until all the tickets were sold (since I didn't clear this with anyone and in the past have been accused of exploiting the memory of someone), but at the MARCH IS CABARET MONTH GALA on Tuesday, the 2nd of March, I plan to dedicate the evening to the memory of the late Earl Wentz and his personal project, the Great American Composer series, http://www.americomps.com/ , which he produced starting in 2000, mostly at DON'T TELL MAMA in NYC. Not only did Earl use these events to bring to our attention some great songwriters/composers, but by creating original, multi-performer revues each time, he exposed us to hundreds of great vocalists. Earl attended many of our CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE events over the years, and was a GOLD member as well.
