The Sensible Cabaret | NYC - February
Tuesday, February 11th - 7:00P
$15 / advance | $20 / Door - 2 Drink Minimum

This February, Sensible features the utterly talented Cayman Ilika, with some VERY Special Guests that will be announced VERY SOON! Cayman splits her time between Seattle & New York, slaying coast to coast - making her NYC debut after a sold-out Sensible Cabaret in November, 2019.

You may have seen her in Musical Theatre West’s production of Oliver as Nancy, or across the US in the World Premiere Production of Beatsville at Asolo Repertory Theatre. A Native of Seattle, her usual haunts are The 5th Avenue Theatre (Austen’s Pride, Kiss Me Kate), ACT Theatre (Jacques Brel…, Vanities), Village Theatre (Million Dollar Quartet, Mary Poppins), and Taproot Theatre (Always… Patsy Cline, Persuasion).

Sensible is so honored to partner with Thomas & Lisa at The Duplex and continue to provide a space for Queer & Allied performers to slay and thrive.

The Cottage offers a variety of seating options, including bistro tables, bar seating, couches by the fire, and a communal farm table. Seating is first come, first serve...so come early! (We humbly ask everyone to be considerate of other guests, and make sure that all have a place to sit!)

----------------------------------------------------

-The Knife Room at Nordo is an historic underground venue that is only accessible by a staircase. We are working on options to make it more accessible, (this is costly and difficult in a 125 year old building,) and in the meantime apologize to those who cannot attend Knife Room events.
-The Sensible Cabaret is not a scent-free space but we have fragrance-free soap labeled and available at the restrooms for those with sensitivities. **The chemicals used in scented products can make some people sick, especially those with fragrance sensitivities, asthma, allergies, and other medical conditions. Please be mindful of this when attending the cabaret.
-Lyric sheets for the songs in the cabaret are available with advanced notice for those who are hard of hearing. Please email cassi@sensibletheatre.co to request one if you plan to attend.
