Matthew Morrison couldn't be more 'Glee'-ful about launching Bay Area Cabaret's 15th Anniversary Season on Sept. 30 at the world-famous Venetian Room at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. 'I love places that have so much history,' says the Tony, Emmy and Golden Globe nominee. Among the celebrated singers who've sung there: Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Marlene Dietrich, Peggy Lee and Tina Turner. And in 1961, Tony Bennett first performed 'I Left My Heart in San Francisco' there, which is especially apt since the Fairmont sits high upon Nob Hill, 'where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.'

For over 5 years Schtick A Pole In It has owned the 4th Saturday in the East Village. It's the best and only Comedy and Pole Dancing show in the city. Comics and pole dancers alternate the stage to create a unique show that leaves everyone happy. Who doesn't like to laugh? Who doesn't like to see dancers do insane things on the pole? If you've never seen a pole show this is the one to come to. They're not strippers, it's not burlesque, it's aerial dance with a side of crazy gymnastics and death defying tricks that make your jaw drop. The comics are the best NYC has to offer. It's an amazing opportunity to see dancers in peak physical condition alternate the stage with comics in peak mental depression.
