Sammons Cabaret is a New York-style cabaret performance series launched in the Spring of 2012 featuring top local vocal performers. The series showcases local artists in an intimate, elegant setting where the artist is the focal point. It is an intensely personal evening of song and stories, where the audience participates in a direct, emotional conversation with the artist.

The Carson Series of Sammons Cabaret, sponsored by Judy and Royal Carson, features top local vocalists performing music from the Great American Songbook, Broadway show tunes, torch songs, and other standards. The Astrid Merriman Cabaret & Cabernet Fête is an evening of fine music by one dozen top local singers and a wine tasting.

Each of the spring 2021 Sammons Cabaret performances will be available as a 24-hour rental on Vimeo. Post-pandemic, the Carson Series is held on the third Thursday of each month, February-May and September-December. Cabaret & Cabernet is held each August.
