Austin Cabaret Theatre

Comment on Facebook

The Austin Cabaret Theatre is a non-profit organization founded by Stuart Moultan in 2001. Stuart was a new Austinite by way of California who was thrilled to find Austin's vibrant art scene, but disappointed to discover that cabaret performances were missing. With his background in performing, directing, and producing, Stuart established the Austin Cabaret Theatre with a roster that has included Ann Hampton Callaway, Steve Ross, Jason Graae, Charo Sam Harris, and many others.

Located on the north-bound side of MoPac/Loop 1, just north of the Steck Ave. exit just before Highway 183.

Free surface parking available around the facility.

      TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT YOU MUST NOT MISS.- an evening with SUSAN LUBIN AT THE LONG CENTER in the Kodosky Lounge. She is a spectacular opera singer who has transitioned into a night of a CABARET style show from the Great American Songbook. You will know the songs and will want to sing along with her and move to the music. She not only has a beautiful voice but she is also witty and will keep you laughing all night long. All proceeds from this show will go to the new Seton Cancer Center. Collapse

      Susan Lubin was absolutely fabulous. Would you expect any less from an opera singer gone cabaret? The show was splendid with beautiful music, stories, and a comedic and unexpected duet. Songs ranged from Broadway musicals and classic films to "Tits and Ass"! Ha, ha! Good show! Collapse

      It is so exciting to see these two performing arts groups collaborate to bring top-notch talents like Stephanie J. Block to Austin. The intimate Kodosky Lounge, with its walls of windows overlooking downtown, is a gorgeous setting in which to enjoy any performer. Ms. Block's Cabaret act features a variety of songs from both established and lesser-known (but not for long) composers. Interspersed with the songs, she tells stories of her career, the most compelling being the bittersweet story of her history with the role of Elphaba in WICKED. Though she now has several Broadway credits under her belt and is undeniably versatile, talented and likable, the stories she tells of her career's path leaves me feeling sorry that she has not yet quite achieved the *STAR* status that she has sought and certainly deserves. Still, she clearly has a large fan base, and I thought that the comedic and jazzy numbers she performed were particularly well-suited to the Cabaret's setting and acoustics. Collapse

      My girlfriend had never been to a real cabaret show. I knew this one would be great because my NY friends had told me what to expect. Watching my date watching Block was a blast. She didn't think she would enjoy it as much as she did, and she can't wait to see another. I grew up in show business, so I explained that just because someone has a great voice, doesn't mean they can "sell" a song. It takes great acting skills, and that's what the difference is all about. Block was outstanding, what a great show! Collapse

      It was a perfect night, featuring a fantastic performance by a most talented women in a gorgeous setting. It was my first time in the Kodosky Lounge at the Long Center, which is encircled with windows so that downtown Austin became our backdrop. Our singer entertained us with the most breath-taking voice accompanied by her delightful stories of Broadway. Her great story-telling ability was punctuated with her excited and child-like "I'm going to be a star" additions. I am a WICKED-addict so I absolutely loved her stories about Stephen Schwartz calling her personally in San Diego to help him work through the creation of his musical so long ago. (If you are familiar with the story of WICKED, she married her Fiyero - her leading man in WICKED - 3 years ago and he was in attendance at her performance and appears to be her biggest fan.) Her ups and downs with WICKED, THE PIRATE QUEEN, and playing Liza Minnelli in THE BOY FROM OZ were described so well, I felt like her closest confidant. Collapse

      Although her genre of music is not my preference, I thoroughly enjoyed the performance by Stephanie Block at the Long Center. No question the woman can sing, but she can also tell interesting stories. A very likeable performer. I was expecting something more like "Cabaret"/"All That Jazz" tunes, but Stephanie belted out more of what I would term classical musical numbers. And unbelievably well. It was a pleasure to be present for such a show. We had great seats in the Kodosky Lounge of the Long Performance Art Center, but a man with a huge head moved out of the set seating arrangement and blocked my view to where I had to adjust my chair and crane to see around him. It happens! The Lounge, which is basically all windows and provides an awesome view of Austin, was freezing cold. I'm so glad that I didn't check my coat. Collapse

      Kudos to Austin Cabaret Theater for bringing Stephanie J. Block to Austin! In the intimate setting of the Long Center’s Kodosky Lounge, Ms. Block’s performance was outstanding. She was so warm and open with the audience, interacting with us throughout her show, as she wove the “back-story” to many of the songs she sang. From her Liza Minnelli pieces, to those from Wicked and The Pirate Queen, her voice soared through the Austin night as we sat enthralled, hanging on every note. After the show she was so gracious, speaking to each and every person who stopped by her table for either a copy of her CD or photo. She talked to each of us as if we were the only person there- what a class act! Never pass up the opportunity see Ms. Block in performance – whether in a Broadway show or in a cabaret show such as last night’s. ACT - please bring her back during another season – this is a show you don’t want to miss! Collapse

      Ann Hampton Callaway truly is a gem of a performer. The self-proclaimed DIVA lives up to the title with the biggest heart for her audience and the music she brings. With wonderful ambiance of the City of Austin the background in the Kodosky Loung at the Long Center, the evening feels warm and intimate. Ann sings wonderful warm ballads, sassy up-tempos and as always she incorporates other band instruments using nothing but her voice. A true cabaret/jazz/American songbook performer is in our midst for one more night. I'm so glad I have had the opportunity to see her live! Collapse

      Stuart Moulton of Austin Cabaret Theater knows how to throw a party!Start with an intimate setting, invite talented, multi-award winning Jim Caruso and Billy Stritch to emcee, sing, and play piano, and add amazing Austin talent.I joined a table of three lovely women for what turned out to be a fun, upbeat night. Mr. Caruso and Mr. Stritch had great rapport and banter with each other, all singers, and the audience.Most of this show changes with each performance as it is open cabaret for local performers. The two Broadway stars never know what to expect, and they display sharp wit with their improvisation. They have wonderful voices and some songs(the Sonny and Cher duet and the country music set)are quite hilarious. With two sold shows this is a great way for ACT to end its ninth season. Perhaps these busy men can return soon. Until then we have excellent singers/songwriters(the Blackwoods, Helen Darling, Dustin Struhall, Marie Lemon, and David Cummings to name a few)to enjoy in Austin. Collapse
