Down With Love: A Cabaret

 

Down With Love: A Cabaret will be presented on February 16 at the Common Fence Point Hall in Portsmouth. Jeff Blanchette and Rachel Hanauer will be performing jazz standards, musical theater and pop.

“Jeff and I wanted to perform again at the Common Fence Point Hall, specifically to fundraise for some theater arts equipment,” Hanauer said. They hope to turn the facility into a full arts center to be used for theater, music and arts programs, as well as community-based fitness and wellness classes.

“Valentine’s Day seemed like the perfect time to put on a cabaret program,” Hanauer said. “Jeff and I are fans of collaborating on these musical review shows together, as we did with I Love… What’s His Name? We decided to create a program for both lovebirds and Anti-Valentine’s Day folks alike, which is why we called it Down with Love.”

Hanauer said the music in this family-friendly program should appeal to audience members of all ages. Hanauer and Blanchette also encourage a BYOB policy, and most of the guests at CFP Hall bring picnic dinners, which all are welcome to do.
