Get ready for Chicago, local-style, with Cannonball Cabaret, a vaudeville-meets-cabaret style of entertainment. Are there ladies dancing in sexy lingerie? Yes. Are there jugglers? Yes. Also, maybe a stilt walker and a unicyclist. So, you know, not your average Saturday night, but also, how do you not go to something so description-defying? It’s the perfect complement to Chicago, which dances into town Thursday (Sept. 18) and will be there through Sept. 23. This performance is something of an anomaly — it’s free, and Cannonball Cabaret typically charges for its shows.
On the River Cafe, Straz Center for the Performing Arts, 1010 N. W.C. MacInnes Place, Tampa. Sept. 22: 6-8 p.m. strazcenter.org.
