Florida Repertory Theatre will present two outdoor cabaret events on Sunday, April 9 and Saturday, April 22 in Florida Rep’s outdoor courtyard on the corner of Bay and Hendry Streets in downtown Fort Myers. Both “Broadway Cabaret” evenings star Florida Rep’s 2022-2023 professional acting intern company performing a mix of Broadway hits from “Hamilton,” “Spamalot,” “A Chorus Line,” and more. The troupe will be accompanied by Gary Stroh on April 9 and Emily Turtle on April 22.

The programs begin at 5 p.m. with gates opening at 4:30 p.m. Tickets are $15; visit floridarep.org or call the box office at 239-332-4488 or toll-free at 877-787-8053. Space is limited so advance ticket reservations are recommended.

“Broadway Cabaret” is the first public performance to be held in Florida Rep’s newly renovated courtyard named “Space to Bloom,” for longtime Florida Rep donor and board member, Naomi Bloom, whose gift in honor of her husband, Ron Wallace, made the renovation possible.
