Sapphic Showtunes
January 2, 2025
Sapphic Showtunes is a unique cabaret night that takes beloved numbers traditionally written for male singers and has them elevated to a new level by queer women and non-binary performers. Created, arranged, and directed by Andrea Shapiro (Punk Goes Broadway! at 54 Below), the program features carefully arranged numbers meant to redefine the musical theater canon’s vision of love. Songs such as “Maria” from West Side Story, “Johanna” from Sweeney Todd, and “All the Wasted Time” from Parade will be transformed into a new context never experienced like this. Sapphic Showtunes is about people’s love being shown towards the women in their lives, and featuring upcoming LGBTQ+ artists, it will be a show you won’t want to miss. All Broadway fans from any background will be welcome and be satisfied as love comes with joy, fun, and excitement just as much as heartbreak.
Produced by Jonathan McLawhorn.
