Coffeehouse Cabaret

Clearly the venues that host the Coffeehouse Cabaret need to benefit. And they do. Coffeehouse Cabaret has had significant impact on Renaissance Cafe in Toronto. This Toronto, Danforth Ave. café has become a vibrant hub of activity not just on the Tuesday night Coffeehouse Cabaret but through out the rest of the week. Why? Because it's become a happening place.

Coffeehouse Cabaret is a gathering of many artists that share the evening in an Open Mike / Open Stage type of format organized by the Coffeehouse Artist Leaders who bring in the other Coffeehouse Artist members.

Coffeehouse Cabaret provides the avenue from which the artists get exposure to the audiences. The artist and the audience build their relationship. The artist gets supported by the audience purhcases. The audience gains cultural value from artists of their own locality.

The venue of couse is the place where this all comes together. It becomes the cultural centre for the local artists and the local patrons. The venue provides the food and refreshments shared at the event. Most importantly, the Coffeehouse Cabaret typically takes place on an off night of the week such as Tuesday. Since these events fill the venue on a Tuesday night, it's great for the venue. A side benefit is that the cultural upliftment received by the patrons spreads into the rest of the week building attendance on other evenings. It's good for business.
