Cabaret Lunatique celebrates the Castro this Saturday, June 4

Cabaret Lunatique will present the next in their series of shows highlighting San Francisco neighborhoods, "Celebrate the Castro," which will take place at Teatro ZinZanni's fantastic Spiegeltent at Pier 29 in San Francisco this Saturday, June 4.

Each show features a variety of acts, though they always have included burlesquers as part of the show. This month, Twilight Vixen Revue (with Stephen Camarota) and SF Boylesque have been selected to perform. Also performing will be community activist, actress, and singer Donna Sachet, transsexual actress and performer Cassandra Cass, aerialist Oliver K. Pavick, singer and actor Tom Orr, circus arts performer and Teatro ZinZanni regular Ling Rui.

Teatro ZinZanni is located at Pier 29 on The Embarcadero at Battery Street (map). There is parking in the nearby neighborhoods, but take notice of the local parking regulations so you don't get a ticket!

Tickets may be purchased in advance at the Teatro ZinZanni box office, by phone at 415/438-2668, or online at cabaretlunatique.org. Tickets are $25.00 for general admission, and $35 for preferred. It is a show for those 21 and older. The lobby doors open at 11:15 p.m., and there will be some light food and beverages available for purchase.


Cabaret Lunatique’s “Celebrate The Castro”

Teatro ZinZanni announces Cabaret Lunatique’s “Celebrate The Castro,” on June 4 at the glamorous Spiegeltent on Pier 29. This will be the fourth installment in a series of nine late-night cabarets each focusing on a distinctive San Francisco neighborhood. In true Castro style, the zany performances will showcase many local artists in a late night varieté spiced with saucy cabaret, crazed circus, scandal, music and plenty of mayhem. First launched in 2008, Teatro ZinZanni’s cabarets all sold out and are now back due to popular demand. The current series began in March with “Celebrate Chinatown” and a further five additional evenings are scheduled for the remainder of the year focusing on the neighborhoods of the Fillmore/Jazz, Haight Ashbury, SOMA, On the Waterfront, and The Hills.

“There is an audience in the Bay Area that is constantly searching for exciting and unique entertainment late at night,”said Teatro ZinZanni Managing Director Susan Outlaw. “Cabaret Lunatique fills that void."

“Celebrate The Castro” is the fourth cabaret of 2011 and features a group of talented local performers including transsexual fantasy girl Cassandra Cass; dazzling burlesque troupes The Twilight Vixen Revue pictured above, right) and the all-male SF Boylesque (pictured below, left); aerialist Oliver K. Pavick; ZinZanni regular Ling Rui; and theatrical singer Tom Orr. The evening will be hosted by former Miss Gay SF and award-winning actress, singer, writer and activist, Donna Sachet.

Cabaret Lunatique’s “Celebrate The Castro” premieres Saturday, June 4. Doors to the lobby will open at 11:15 PM. Admission is $35 for premium and $25 general admission.
