About the Veggie Cabaret
Veggie Cabaret is a cabaret-style show with comedy, theater, puppetry and music, for the 2007 Philly Fringe Festival. Share funny moments from vegetarians living in a meat-eating world. We invite all palates to unite for the common cause of compassion. The line up includes Dan Piraro of Bizarro comics, musical comedians Bob Pyle and Jim Harris, The Skekses Puppet Company, caricaturist Vance Lehmkuhl, emcee Philip Jacobson, comedians Sue Kelly and Karen Zeitz, and actress Meghan Mitzelon September 14th & 15th, 8pm, at The Rotunda, 4014 Walnut Street. Delicious vegan food will be available for purchase.
   

Internationally syndicated cartoonist Dan Piraro shares slides of his most hilarious and provocative animal rights cartoons. Shannon Dunham and Sharon Waskow of The Skekses perform their puppet show, “Birds of a Feather,” starring Tofurky and Turducken who meet on the Thanksgiving table. Vance Lehmkuhl performs his signature Drawalong, a longtime favorite activity at the Vegetarian Summerfest. Comedian Sue Kelly shares funny stories about her animals with amazing wit. Jim Harris and Bob Pyle weave the show together with their musical comedy. Skits about veggie dating, dining out and barbequing add sex appeal and candid humor.

“The Veggie Cabaret is a celebration of vegetarian life,” says Lisa Levinson, director and co-founder of Public Eye: Artists for Animals. “It’s a social event for Veggies and Non-Veggies to meet and greet over like-minded laughs. We hope to unite people who share similar lifestyles and invite others for a humorous peek into the vegetarian world.”
