Broadway's 40 theatres aren't the only places to catch performances from your favorite stars! Well after Broadway orchestra's begin their overtures, ensemble members take their dance breaks, and performers belt out their eleven- o'clock numbers, the party continues at various cabaret venues throughout New York City. Below, BroadwayWorld brings you some cabaret highlights for this week as picked by our theatre editors, including: The Cast of IF/THEN Sings Kitt & Yorkey; David Michael Finkelstein's Bar Mitzvah: The Musical Comedy In Concert; Josh Canfield & Reed Kelly: From Broadway to Survivor; Ellyn Marie Marsh: INNAPPROPRIATE; and T Oliver Reid: Drop Me Off at Harlem.

Sigh. Let's revisit last week's SURVIVOR, shall we? No matter how painful and emotionally taxing it may be, I think we all need to talk about it. It's the only way to move on. To get some closure. To find inner peace. To learn to love again. (Oh, c'mon, Kara, cool the histrionics. Nope, sorry, shan't, won't.) So grab some Kleenex and dab your eyes, dear readers, because we're going to talk about Josh.
It's a big night on CBS. Before a winner can be crowned on BIG BROTHER 16, SURVIVOR's gotta make a comeback, coming in hot with its 29th season premiere. And I mean hot. Like really hot. I've never been to San Juan del Sur, but a preliminary Google search tells me that the humidity can get up to 100%. Phew.
CBS announced today the 18 castaways who will compete against each other on SURVIVOR, when the Emmy Award-winning series returns for its 29th season with a special 90-minute premiere, Wednesday, Sept. 24 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Emmy Award winner Jeff Probst is host.
According to Entertainment Weekly, Broadway ensemblist Reed Kelly, and his boyfriend Josh Canfield will appear on the next season of CBS' long-running reality show SURVIVOR. Kelly, has been seen on Broadway in WICKED, SPIDER-MAN: TURN OFF THE DARK, and THE ADDAMS FAMILY. Canfield was a member of the Off-Broadway cast of NATASHA, PIERRE AND THE GREAT COMET OF 1812.
