We couldn’t have asked for a better way to kick off our SUMMER CABARET SERIES!

There’s something special about escaping the desert heat, gathering with friends in our cool, air-conditioned theatre, enjoying a drink in the lobby, and then experiencing the extraordinary talent of artists like these. What a wonderful evening it was! And, as always, Jason Graae had the audience laughing from start to finish.

Did you know?

The powerhouse vocalist Nita Whitaker broke barriers as the first Black Miss Louisiana and dominated Star Search as a Hall of Fame Grand Champion!

Beyond her own solo success, she’s the “voice behind the voice,” having recorded the original demos for Whitney Houston’s most iconic hits like I Will Always Love You.

From touring with Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban and Michael Bolton to founding the non-profit In A World With Books, Nita is a true master of using her gift to give back.

Her performance is a major highlight of our Summer Cabaret Series, and you won’t want to miss her soulful journey through Natalie Cole’s most beloved hits!
