This is your Skipper asking you to come on board! Mayflower Day commemorates the day the ship set sail from Plymouth, England in 1620. On September 16 of 1620, the Mayflower set sail from Plymouth, England with 102 souls on board. These colonists- men, women, children, some seeking fortune, some seeking religious freedom – were later known as pilgrims. My Pilgrims today include Maria Gentile, Sudi ( RIck) Karatas, and Artemisia LeFay Artemisia LeFay is a dark cabaret performer, bellydancer, actress, classical mezzo soprano, pianist, and songwriter based in NYC. She specializes in the performance of vintage European cabaret and vaudeville, particularly the sonic rarities of 1920s Paris and Berlin. She is best known for her show "Ghosts of Weimar Past", a madcap, historically inspired "cabaret-sical", and will be performing her brand-new show "Phantoms of the Cabaret" several times this Autumn to usher in "spooky season" in the cabaret community. GHOSTS OF WEIMAR PAST: A love letter to those subversive artists and martyrs of the kabarett scene of Weimar Berlin. Performed by actor-musicians to fully immerse the audience in their musical time travel, it is the Ghosts' cry of warning not to let history repeat itself. Full of pathos and humor, GoWP features rare and painstakingly collected tunes by Spoliansky, Weill, Hollaender, and Jary. PHANTOMS OF THE CABARET: Continuing with Artemisia's penchant (dare we say obsession?) with the Other Side, she continues to conjure up spirits in a melange of vintage hot jazz, European cabaret, American neo-rag, and original dark cabaret pieces. www.sudirick.com www.facebook.com/rick.karatas www.youtube.com/user/sudirick www.instagram.com/sudirick/
