Sorry, Not Sorry

SORRY, NOT SORRY!

Willkommen, bienvenue, and welcome to Sorry, Not Sorry. This unapologetic cabaret is deliciously irreverent celebrating women who have officially run out of apologies. With a wink and a smile, and absolutely no intention of behaving, we’re serving up saucy songs, sharp wit, and a whole lot of attitude. We’ve got opinions, we’ve got stories, and we’re not afraid to make a scene about it. Expect bold performances, a healthy dose of sass, and the occasional questionable decision (which, frankly, we’d make again). We’re not here to please everyone. We’re here to have a damn good time. And if you don’t like it? Sorry, not sorry.
