“I’ve never had more fun than participating in Cabaret,” says Peterson.
“It takes hours and hours of time … people come out of the woodwork to shine on stage and contribute what they can.”
If you can’t make it to the Meet the Director Night, but still want to be involved, contact Robin Swecker at rasweck@gmail.com or 360.431.4830 for more information. Everyone is welcome and no one will be turned away. Those unable to participate are encouraged to buy tickets and see the show.
This year the proceeds will go to Youth and Family Link. This local organization promotes positive change in a child and family’s life by engaging and linking them to resources that will result in successes in school, having positive friends, a healthy home life, and being involved in wholesome activities. The fundraising goal, to be met primarily through corporate sponsorships and ticket sales is $30,000.

Ramona Leber, president of Cabaret Follies of Lower Columbia, said, “Whatever you can do, there’s a place for you. This is a great opportunity for stretching one’s limits and getting to be on stage.” She said it’s also fun for the audience to watch their friends doing something new and different, and everyone is amused and surprised by the dances and skits.
Every show ticket purchased helps support the Youth and Family Link organization. A beautiful diamond pendant necklace, courtesy of Diamond Showcase, will be raffled, with tickets available for purchase at all three performances. The lucky winner will be announced at the final performance on March 25th.
Let the show begin!

On my way to Cabaret, I hope they do “Singin’ in the Rain” and call me up from the audience!
