The Cabaret Festival is an entertainment showcase put on by the Mad Cow Theatre. It features over 30 performances of jazz, pop, Broadway, comedy, and cabaret from around the Central Florida region.
A fundraising event to benefit education programs at Mad Cow Theatre kicks off the festival on Thursday, April 24 and features a lineup of some of the best in Central Florida cabaret acts. During the festival, Mad Cow Theatre’s 2-theatre complex in Downtown Orlando will play host to all the performances.
