Dark Cabaret
Tourette's Without Regrets
Dark cabaret may be a simple description of the theme and mood of a cabaret performance, but more recently has come to define a particular musical genre which draws on the aesthetics of the decadent, risqué German Weimar-era cabarets, burlesque and vaudeville shows with the stylings of post-1970s goth and punk music. This event takes place periodically in San Francisco and it’s always alot of fun for me.
Shock and delight your out-of-town guests or vanilla friends — or relish in some amazing feats, just because — at Tourette's Without Regrets, which was held on the first Thursday of each month at Oakland Metro. Open to the public, a night of dirty haikus, rap battles, wild aerialists, burlesque, and much more. Host/emcee Jamie DeWolf puts together the ultimate performance showcase that is as weird as it is riveting. It’s utter madness (in the best way).
