Review: Singers Compete at MAMA'S NEXT BIG ACT at Don't Tell Mama
by Nicole Spano - Aug 12, 2026
What do a kazoo, a 10-year-old, and a wooden spoon have in common? They could all be seen at Don't Tell Mama during Mama's Next Big Act last Monday. The multi-MAC Award-winning competition, co-produced by Lennie Watts and Don't Tell Mama, is now in its ninth season and remains one of the highlights of the summer cabaret scene. Over the course of eight weeks, more than twenty hopefuls compete for the title, gradually narrowing down week by week. The final winner receives $1,500 toward their solo show at Don't Tell Mama, along with a professionally designed poster by Frank Dain, an appearance at The Lineup with Susie Mosher, a feature in Cabaret Scenes Magazine- and perhaps the most coveted prize of all: a panini press.
