Laura Hodos, Trevor Southworth and More Set for 2013 Orlando Cabaret Festival, April-May 2013

Mad Cow Theatre presents the Orlando Cabaret Festival, featuring the return of festival favorites, as well as popular events including the Out to Lunch daytime shows and two new editions in Mad Cow's It Was A Very Good Year series.

Beloved local artists Laura Hodos, Janine Klein, Melissa Minyard, and Trevor Southworth join the Orlando Cabaret Festival lineup with their own original show. These talented performers will be seen among our evening line up as well as during the always popular Out to Lunch series where you can enjoy a fabulous show and delicious lunch made by Virgin Olive Market.

Peppered into the Out to Lunch programming are two new installments to the It Was A Very Good Year series. Join us as we celebrate a year in the life of America: the news, the lifestyles, the gossip, and the most important element - the music of 1955 & 1965.
