Martin Borsanyi is a pianist, songwriter, and producer based in Newport Beach. His original music has appeared on MTV, Oxygen Network, and ABC-TV, among other places. He releases his own pop music under the name Port Streets.
SEXY: Anissa Valadez

Thank you all for coming to the show, support local theatre and more importantly the local theatre kids

He has been always striving to expand his creativity, whether through acting classes, guitar lessons, or singing lessons. You can catch him on select Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm or 9:30pm each month. Being on stage and moving people, either to laughter or tears, is what makes him feel alive.
MONOLOGUES performed by: Bryce St. Peter
Featuring:
-
Orsino from Twelfth Night,
-
Puck from A Midsummer Night’s Dream
-
Dogberry from Much Ado About Nothing
At the young tender age o’ 12 in 2006, Bryce perform’d Shakespeare for th’ first time. 20 years passed, Bryce hath now read the Complete Works of Shakespeare. What better way, to laugh, be merry, and witty in May, than with a: Shakespearian Comedy Character Medley.
ON MY OWN: Matt Hoover
Matt Hoover is thrilled to be back on the KelsCabaret stage for the comedy show. Unlike his usual bios, he would like to keep this brief.
For this particular performance, Matt wanted to sing a beautiful ballad for all to hear. From the classic musical, Les Miserables, Matt would like to present On My Own… if it was set in Present Day West Hollywood.
PIRATE JENNY: Rigby Jones and Martin Borsanyi
Rigby Jones is forsaking the world of chuckles and yuks to pursue a career as a serious thespian. No more parodies, wigs, or funny business. Only Shakespeare and Beckett from now on. No questions. No interviews. Please respect her decision and her privacy at this time.
THE PEOPLE PLEASER: Gabrielle Gutierrez
Gabrielle Gutierrez (she/her) is an award-nominated actress and producer with a dynamic career spanning theatre and film. She just got back from New York where she was a featured soloist at The Laurie Beechman Theatre. When she’s not performing, she is running two companies. Her production company, OutFox Entertainment, just had one of their projects go to the Cannes Film Festival and another one will make their premiere at the Frameline 50 Film Festival next month in San Francisco. She also runs an animal nonprofit called Bright Tails Animal Alliance where her team provides emergency housing and funds for shelters. All the love goes to her husband, Damion, who always believes in her. In the spirit of “Make ’Em Laugh,” she hopes everyone here goes for their dreams and chases the ridiculous! Remember if you can laugh through the hard stuff, you’re basically winning.
Please join us in holding our friend and cabaret family member Gabrielle as she fights Thyroid Cancer.

Sharing and spreading the word helps tremendously as well.
We Love You, Gabrielle!
INTERMISSION, 10 MINUTES
THE PLAN: Sharon Rae Massey
A professional funny face maker, Sharon Rae Massey is glad to finally showcase her true talent on this stage. When picking her song for a comedy show, she let the phrase WWRJD or “What would Rigby Jones do?” guide her and she landed on this absurd song from one of her new favorite shows. She would like to remind the audience to remember tonight and always “If we couldn’t laugh, we would all go insane!”
SHE LIKES BASKETBALL: Robert Burns
Robert has been unable to ask a woman out on a date for over 40 years. That’s a good thing because he has been married to his wife, Sandra, for over 40 years. She might object to his doing that, but he’s only 75% sure. He attributes the success of his long marriage on not making her come to his performances. Robert would like to thank his friend of over 30 years, Larry, for being in the audience and actually laughing at his jokes. Don’t look at him, he’s shy. Robert is a proud member of ImprovCity troupe and auditions for commercials on a regular basis. Look for his latest commercial on TEIMI where he is looking for a guy who likes basketball. What about that!?
LOSER, BABY: Patrick Castillo and Erik Lindenau
Patrick Castillo (He/They) is an OC based performer with experience primarily in Musical Theatre, live performance and on occasion laying some studio vocals. He’s been consistently performing for nearly a decade all across OC, in shows such as Jesus Christ Superstar (Judas), American Idiot (Tunny), The Drowsy Chaperone (Robert), Rocky Horror Picture Show (Riff Raff), Sister Act (Pablo) , The Hunchback of Notre Dame (St. Aphrodisius), Etc.
When not on stage, he is usually crocheting or writing songs. Hopes you all enjoy this performance! Much love to friends & family!

HAPPY DAYS: Cheryl George
Cheryl George is thrilled to participate with the OC Cabaret. When she steps onto the stage and begins to sing, everything else falls away, the stress of day-to-day challenges, all of it disappears. In those moments, she is fully immersed in the music completely committed to each note and every lyric. Singing isn’t just a performance for Cheryl, it’s a joyous escape, a place where she can connect deeply with music and with all of you!

HELLO, DARLING: Faith Graham
Faith is super excited to be back for yet another cabaret, getting to perform such a weird song! Oh, and in this song, you’re going to have to pretend a little bit. More to come on that! Her favorite show that she has been in was the World Premiere of It’s All Your Fault, Tyler Price, which she won a Scenie for Outstanding Performance by a Child Ensemble, and the musical
won Best New Musical! But enough about that- it’s time to get weird. She hopes you enjoy her song!
ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN: Elise Marie Lindenau and TJ Corsaro
Elise is so excited to be back with OC Cabaret! Her passion for the stage started when she was five years old and performed as a dancing Elf in a local holiday ballet. From there, she found her voice and couldn’t wait to share it with anyone who would listen! She most recently performed with Valverde Stage Productions as Sally in You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown and with the Redlands Theater Festival as Inga in Young Frankenstein and Alice in You Can’t Take It With You! Up next she will be returning to Redlands as Janet in Drowsy Chaperone and Ruth in Blithe Spirit. She is forever grateful to her parents, wonderful husband, and friends for their support and love. This one, and every one, is for her father! @elisemarielindy www.elisemarielindenau.com
TJ is excited to make his OC Cabaret debut! TJ’s love for music started at a young age following his father’s career as a professional musician. From there, his passion for the stage evolved from music to acting while writing sketches and scenes with his older sisters in “The TJ Show!” – the lesser known comedy sketch show, though just as great as “The Amanda Show.” In high school, his calling and passion were solidified when he joined the drama department. He has most recently appeared as Frederick Frankenstein in Young Frankenstein and Mr. DePinna in You Can’t Take It With You both at the Redlands Theatre Festival. He will soon be back to the Festival as Adolpho in The Drowsy Chaperone and Alfie in One Man, Two Guvnors. Thank you to his friends and family for supporting him and pushing him to keep climbing! @teejcorsaro
