Teatro ZinZanni Presents Cabaret Lunatique’s “Celebrate Haight-Ashbury”

Teatro ZinZanni will host an evening of art, music, dance and “peace and love” with Cabaret Lunatique’s “Celebrate Haight-Ashbury” on Saturday, August 6 at the gorgeous Spiegeltent on Pier 29. As the sixth installment in a series of nine late-night cabarets each focusing on a distinctive San Francisco neighborhood, “Celebrate Haight-Ashbury” will let your inner bohemian run free in celebration of a community that defined America in the 60’s!

First launched in 2008, Teatro ZinZanni’s cabarets all sold out and were brought back this year due to popular demand. The current series began in March with “Celebrate Chinatown” and a further three additional evenings are scheduled for the remainder of the year focusing on the neighborhoods of SOMA, On the Waterfront, and The Hills.

“The Bay Area is filled with people searching for unique late-night entertainment as an alternative to attending a bar or club,” said Teatro ZinZanni Managing Director Susan Outlaw. “Cabaret Lunatique has been an exciting and welcome addition to the local nightlife scene.”

“Celebrate Haight-Ashbury” is a late-night varieté spiced with saucy cabaret, crazed circus, scandal, music and plenty of mayhem. The evening will showcase local talent including Teatro ZinZanni magician Brandon Rabe, accomplished six-ball juggler Thomas John, aerialists Cameron McHenry and Marina Luna, all-women clown troupe Circus Finelli, contortionist Nancy Kate Siefker and music from the band Aaron Glass and Friends. Stunning burlesque artist La Chica Boom (pictured) will serve as host, performer and the best eye candy around!

Cabaret Lunatique’s “Celebrate Haight-Ashbury” premieres Saturday, August 6. Doors to the lobby will open at 11:15 PM. Admission is $35 for premium and $25 general admission. 21 and older only.

An esteemed member of the local arts community for more than a decade, Teatro ZinZanni is a not-for-profit arts organization with a mission to preserve, nurture, and support the centuries-old traditions of European circus arts. Over the past decade, Teatro ZinZanni has assisted other non-profit organizations including Sean Penn’s Haitian Relief Organization, Bread and Roses Family Foundation, Huckleberry House, Suicide Prevention League and New Leaf Services in raising more than $2,000,000 for charitable causes through ticket donations and hosting fundraisers in the tent.
