Guests at Capone’s Dinner & Show that like the cabaret aspect of our production, should check out the 10th Annual Orlando Cabaret Festival starting today, May 3 through May 13. The festival features four fun and unique cabaret performances. Which one to see might be difficult to choose – why not see them all?

The cabarets include:

  1. It Was A Very Good Year: 1962
