An Evening Cabaret Preview Night December 17 at 8p Runs December 18-22 at 8p Featuring music, dance & vignettes, immerse yourself in an evening cabaret. Inspired by the more intimate cabaret performances, An Evening Cabaret invites you to enjoy a more casual theatre experience with performances by local creatives from throughout our Valley. With table seating and beverage access throughout the show. Featuring music, comedy, and vignettes, this show is a perfect night out with friends! A cabaret show is an intimate performance combining music, singing, acting, and sometimes dance, performed for a seated audience, often at tables, with food and drinks available. The style is characterized by a personal connection between the performer and the audience, with performances that can be funny, tragic, political, or sophisticated. The overall atmosphere is more casual than a traditional theater, allowing for audience interaction and a more relaxed environment
Gunnison Valley is also host to several beloved annual events. A classic winter event is The Alley Loop, a Nordic ski race that doubles as a costume contest. In fall, Mt. Crested Butte hosts the famous Chili and Beer Festival. Every summer in Gunnison, a crowd gathers to watch America’s fourth-oldest rodeo, Cattlemen’s Days. There are also festivals in Crested Butte that celebrate local art, music, wildflowers, and more. Attending an annual event is a good way to connect with the culture of the Gunnison Valley. You might even create a new tradition for you and your family and friends!
