Don’t miss this unique and unforgettable event, only at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. Kat Robichaud's Misfit Cabaret Presents Circus– a night of decadence, bawdiness, and damsels (not) in distress. Come experience the fantastical variety show everyone is talking about! “One day, when I was much younger than I am now, the circus came to town. My town, so ordinary in grass green and sky blue and white fences, suddenly was saturated in candy apple red, tiger stripe yellow and taffeta neon purple. As the sun went down, electric bulb lights buzzed, and the rumble and pop of the marching drums stirred inside excitement I had never felt before. The sequined sparkling ladies that balanced on Falabella horses, elastic acrobats catching each others’ lives in resined hands so high up in the air, and the ringleader, in brass buttons and a single cream feather atop his gold-trimmed hat, held his hand out, as if only for me. One day, when I was much younger than I am now, the circus came to town. I fell in love… and ran away.” - Kat Robichaud, Misfit Cabaret’s “CIRCUS” Misfit Cabaret is a splendiferous variety show centered around magical music with a rotating cast of eccentric performers. Each show is completely different—with changing themes such as the cult-filmed Cinephilia and the naughty nautical Whimsea. From burlesque to drag to circus to magic, you never know what you're going to see (or get yourself into)! For each new Misfit Cabaret, emcee Kat Robichaud writes two (sometimes three or four!) original songs keeping with the theme of the evening and plays them with her band, The Darling Misfits, as well as a special medley to kick off the evening and welcome in the spirits of San Francisco's saucy past. There's comedy, romance, and bawdiness around every corner and not a dull moment or dry eye in the house. So come and play with us and befriend a local underground miscreant. Who knows – they might whisper to you when the next secret Misfit Cabaret is! Founded in 2015 by The Voice finalist Kat Robichaud and co-producer Jordan Nathan, Misfit Cabaret has evolved from an underground production in a tiny San Francisco speakeasy into one of the West Coast's most cherished variety shows. Over the past 10 years, the production has established itself as a "cult" institution, celebrated for its genre-defying blend of rock 'n' roll, burlesque, drag, and circus arts. Beyond its commercial success, the show is lauded for its artistic rigor—Robichaud writes original music for every themed production—and its commitment to community, serving as an inclusive sanctuary for diverse underground artists and "misfits" to thrive in an increasingly expensive arts landscape. Your hostess with the mostess, Kat Robichaud prowls around the stage: a hellcat unleashed, furious to have been confined in southern 90s suburbia stasis. With various wigs and rock warrior whimsy, she shrieks catharsis that at once stops and rushes the blood of anyone within earshot of her siren song. Part Janis, part Bette, part Mama Cass, Robichaud writes murder ballads, Broadway pop songs about anxiety, and neo-wave rock and roll on anything from alien sex to gaslighting puppeteers. Existing in many forms – sometimes host of her hit musical variety show Misfit Cabaret, sometimes drag artist twirling her pearls in the spotlight of gay sex clubs – Robichaud feels most at home among her fellow queerdos, rattling off current hyperfixations and sipping whiskey with the stunning underground Bay Area artists who survived the gorging promises of corporations in late-stage capitolism. She's a hell of a show woman and has had 20 years of stage time to prove it. It doesn't matter if she's singing in a southern chain chicken joint, a 1,500 seat theater in Times Square, a painted plywood speakeasy, or in front of 15 million people watching her on The Voice: she will get your attention and hold it like she'll die if she chooses to let go. And you hope she never will. With original music by Kat Robichaud including Colors of Your Heart and Charade. “Cabaret performer Kat Robichaud combines a renegade aesthetic, a wicked sense of humor and a rock star’s singed timbre.” – SF Chronicle “...a deliciously eclectic medley of performers” – SF Chronicle “As the glitter-rock diva who famously once crowd-surfed to AWOLNATION’s ‘Sail’ on live TV, Kat Robichaud made history as one of the most electric and fearless Voice contestants of all time. But that iconic performance provided a mere glimpse of her dramatic talents, as the San Francisco theater maverick has since gone on to stage her own successful Bowie- and Burton-inspired rock operas – still performing on her own terms, but showcasing her true voice.” – Yahoo Entertainment “An exorcise in comic terror that will leave your head spinning.” – SF Weekly “San Francisco’s weird artists and their possibly even weirder audiences are alive and thriving.” – SF Chronicle
