“Our third annual Broadway Cabaret will be the biggest and best one ever, presented in our Dunes Theatre home,” says Scott. “We'll showcase songs from a variety of shows from the past sixty years, from such golden age classics as ‘The Music Man’ and ‘Guys and Dolls’ to such contemporary works as ‘Hadestown,’ ‘Passing Strange’ and ‘Waitress’ – and we'll feature some of the best performers from our past three seasons as well as outstanding singers new to the Dunes. It's a wonderful way to end our summer season, and I couldn't be more excited to bring this to our incredible Dunes audiences.”
This event will be held indoors in our air-conditioned theatre with a garden party set design by Michael Lasswell. The box office opens one hour before the show. Come early and enjoy a snack or drink on our patio. Individual tickets can be purchased for $35 on www.DunesArts.org; special prices: $30 general; $27 senior/student tickets and $25 for group sales (four or more) are available on Eventbrite.
