Cabaret is an important distillation of musical theater, and Rendezvous celebrates the art of cabaret by evoking the spirit of its golden age in New York (and Cleveland) during the 1940s and 1950s. As James Gavin writes in his book Intimate Nights: “There was in these nightclubs an electricity, a subtle romantic aura, an air of sophistication that made you feel like a member of the elite….No theater or television could have engendered such artistry, for the tiny quarters of these clubs contained one precious element: intimate human contact.” In TMTP’s Rendezvous, great words and music are savored by an intimate community of artists and audience, creating our own intimate nights. Our next Rendezvous Cabaret is being planned for October 2026 at the Hunt Club.
