Broadway Cabaret Series

Charleston Playhouse’s Broadway Cabaret Series will feature Broadway performers, Equity members from across the country, and local professionals, on the beautiful Chapel Theatre stage in downtown Charleston. Following the time-honored structure of Cabaret performances, each evening will be a themed original work curated by the artist, featuring music and storytelling in an immersive and intimate experience. We also offer a musical theatre performance Masterclass, open to the public, where select students will get the opportunity to perform for and receive feedback from the artist, as well as partake in a Q&A session. In Partnership with the CofC Department of Theatre and Dance, Charleston Playhouse’s Broadway Cabaret Series will not only be a source of professional entertainment for our community, but will also provide invaluable education and access for our local students, the next generation of theatre professionals.
