RRAZZ Room Hosts 2nd Anniversary Gala & Benefit for Haiti Relief/American Red Cross

The owners of The Rrazz Room "The two Rs" -- Robert Kotonly and Rory Paull -- celebrate their 2nd year anniversary with not only a star-studded lineup of performers, but also a dynamic team of players dedicated to upholding its status as "The Premier Nightclub of the West Coast." With a seating capacity of approximately 170, The Rrazz Room is one of the few places in the San Francisco Bay Area where you can experience live performances up close and personal. Last year's gala sold out, so advance ticket purchase highly recommended. Partial proceeds from this very special evening will benefit Haiti Relief/American Red Cross.

Robert Kotonly and Rory Paull of Rrazz Entertainment booked the Empire Plush Room in York Hotel from 2005 - 2008, until the owners of the venue decided to change the nightclub into a restaurant. Opened on March 17, 2008, the RRAZZ room at Hotel Nikko is a "complete entertainment experience," with a full bar, light food service and valet parking. Performers will enter and exit the stage through the audience. Kotonly uses the word "nightclub" almost exclusively, because "cabaret" gives you the wrong vibe altogether. "You hear 'cabaret' and a lot of people get the wrong perception. People hear that and imagine a singer who has seen better days performing in a very scaled-down situation. That description is horrible. You say 'nightclub' and you see an upscale place, good music, nice drinks, people dressed up a little, maybe coming in after a show or dinner to a little club in a swanky hotel." One word that best describes The Rrazz Room: "classy." Wednesday, March 17, 2010, 8pm. $75-$175.
