Article published on Monday, Oct. 15, 2012
ST. PETERSBURG – After a sold out run last year, local cabaret crowd favorites (and serious Bette Midler fanatics) Sara DelBeato and Michael Raabe return for one night only Saturday, Oct. 20, to celebrate and interpret the music of The Divine Miss M with the BETTE Set – a musical journey to Midler Earth.
The show begins at 8 p.m.
Michael Raabe is one of Florida’s most exciting musical talents and is a sought after singer/pianist and musical director throughout the Bay Area. He was most recently featured in The Tampa Bay Times for his work on freefall’s recent smash Cabaret.
Sara DelBeato is an award-winning singer and actress having appeared in numerous venues throughout the nation. Most recently, Sara played Tracy Turnblad in Hairspray at The Show Palace in Hudson.
From her retro-tastic covers and camp classics to her power ballads and movie hits, Sara and Michael will take you on a splendid musical journey to Midler earth. Feather boa and fabulous shoes optional (but highly recommended!)
Tickets are $15, general seating. All ticket proceeds to benefit The Trevor Project. The BETTE Set will be performed in freeFall’s main space directly across from the box office.
Tickets are available online at www.freeFallTheatre.com or by calling the box office at 727-498-5205. General admission seating, cash bar available.
