    Bay Area Cabaret Returns to San Francisco's Most Historic Showroom

    BAY AREA CABARET RETURNS TO SAN FRANCISCO’S MOST HISTORIC SHOWROOM, THE FAIRMONT VENETIAN ROOM Presents Ninth Season of Nationally Renowned Vocalists Season opens October 28 with “Supremes” Legend Mary Wilson, continues with Broadway icon Tommy Tune, singer/actor Peter Gallagher, Broadway duo Marin Mazzie and Jason Danieley, actress/recording artist Elaine Paige, actress/singer Nellie McKay performing with Chanticleer, and a season finale Marvin Hamlisch Tribute. San Francisco, CA (September 14, 2012) --- Bay Area Cabaret, the local non-profit organization devoted to presenting audiences with top performers who expand the definition of cabaret, has announced its lineup for the 2012-2013 season. Opening the season Sunday, October 28, 2012 is Motown legend and founding member of “Supremes,” Mary Wilson, followed Sunday, November 11, 2012 by 9-time Tony Award winning singer/dancer/director/choreographer Tommy Tune, and December 9, 2012 by television, film, and Broadway star Peter Gallagher. The series continues in 2013 with “Broadway’s golden couple,” Marin Mazzie and Jason Danieley on February 17, 2013, “Britain’s first lady of musical theatre” Elaine Paige on March 1, 2013, and a performance by singer/actress Nellie McKay featuring San Francisco’s Grammy-winning a capella male chorus Chanticleer on March 23, 2013. Rounding out the season is a tribute to the late Marvin Hamlisch, with special guests to be announced, on June 2, 2013, which would have been the legendary composer’s 69th birthday, with special guests to be announced. After several seasons of presenting shows in a variety of elegant showrooms, Bay Area Cabaret found a permanent home two years ago when it was invited to reopen the Fairmont Hotel’s historic Venetian Room, which had been dark as an entertainment venue for over 21 years.

Do You Think You're What They Say You Are? Reflections on Jesus Christ Superstar Abstract Jesus Christ Superstar (dir. Norman Jewison, 1973) is a hybrid which, though influenced yb Jesus films, also transcends them. Its rock opera format and its focus on Holy Week make it congenial to the adaptation of the Gospels and its characterization of a plausible, non-stereotypical Jesus capable of change sets it apart from the traditional films and aligns it with The Last Temptation of Christ and Jesus of Montreal. It uses its depiction of Jesus as a means not of reverence but of interrogation, asking him questions by placing him in a context full of overtones of the culture of the early 1970s, English-speaking West, attempting to understand him by converting him into a pop-idol, with adoring groupies among whom Jesus struggles, out of context, in an alien culture that ultimately crushes him, crucifies him and leaves him behind.
