Dessert Song
Dessert Song is our cabaret-style show, presented once each season, which started in 2003. Each year, we feature a different "family" of desserts, and also offer coffee, soft drinks and a variety of wines for you to enjoy while watching our show. The show itself consists of a variety of musical numbers presented by talented performers with a wide variety of experience. The songs themselves range from slow, heartfelt ballads, to lively comedic numbers. We have solos, duets and group numbers. Most of the music is from Broadway musicals (old and new), and we also encourage the old jazz standards and some of the "soon to become" jazz standards.
Dessert Song is sure to provide the audience with a light hearted, relaxing evening out. It also provides an opportunity for experienced performers to strut their stuff, and for less experienced performers to get some stage time to build their confidence. It's a safe, friendly environment where we, as performers, get the chance to learn from each other, and have some fun in the process.
Dessert Song is always presented as a fundraiser for a local charity. Beneficiaries of the past include McMan Youth and Family, Crohn's and Colitis Foundation - Calgary Chapter, and The Lougheed House.
Our presentation of Dessert Song for the 2007-2008 season will be at the Easterbrook Theatre in February of 2008.
