CHESTERTOWN — It’s pop. It’s rock. It’s Broadway. It’s jazz. It’s old standards.
One might say it’s everything, including the kitchen sink.
The Garfield Center for the Arts will present “The Kitchen Sink Cabaret” at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 17 in what promises to be an evening of diverse music with songs chosen by the performers from any genre.
This is one of two fundraiser concerts the GCA will present this year as it ramps up efforts toward a capital campaign for a new stage, rigging and other facility needs.
The event gathers some of the community’s best-known singers and performers, all of whom have appeared on the Garfield stage in many productions over the years. The show will feature multiple musical performances by Shannon and Nic Carter, Brad Chaires, Natalie and Max Hagan, Melissa McGlynn and JW Ruth.
Each of the performers are known for past GCA musical theater performances, including roles in “Beauty and the Beast,” “Annie,” “Shrek,” “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” “The Addams Family Musical” and “Lucky Stiff.”
Their talent is not just limited to singing, as they have all appeared in GCA non-musicals including “Noises Off,” “Prescription: Murder,” “Greater Tuna,” “The Play That Goes Wrong” and “Psycho Beach Party” — among others.
Tickets for the May 17 performance are $25 apiece, and can be purchased anytime at www.garfieldcenter.org.
Tickets also may be purchased by calling the box office at 410-810-2060 during regular box office hours of 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
The Garfield Center for the Arts is located at 210 High St. in downtown Chestertown.
