Nicole Vanessa Ortiz, Kyle Taylor Parker and More to be Featured in Ogunquit Playhouse's Patio Cabaret Series

Ogunquit Playhouse will light up Maine's Southern Seacoast with not only four Main Stage shows in the new outdoor Leary Pavilion, but the return of their wildly successful Patio Cabaret Series, presented by Ogunquit's very own Village Food Market.

For 10 select weekends between June 4 and September 26, the sounds of music and memories will grace the Playhouse's vintage patio on the immaculate campus grounds. Seated at socially distanced tables of twos and fours, the patio comes alive seating 100 patrons for each of our four weekend performances - Fridays 5:00p, Saturdays 2:30 and 5:00p, and Sundays at 7:00p.

Whether attending as a casual weekend unwind, or a pre-cursor to taking in a Main Stage performance, guests will be entertained by some of the finest voices and personalities to ever grace the Playhouse stage in an intimate cabaret environment.

In light of current events, we have revised our approach to the Season by enabling patrons to remove their masks when seated socially distanced for performances in The Leary Pavilion and the Patio Cabaret. However, face coverings must still be worn when bodies are in motion to, from, and around our performance spaces, for the health and safety of all patrons, staff, volunteers, and performers.

Patio Cabaret performances are On Sale Now at ogunquitplayhouse.org and through our Box Office phone lines at 207.646.5511. Seating is by table, priced as $140 for a table of two, and $280 for a table of four, limited to 100 patrons per performance. Pricing includes one complimentary drink per person.

With this series having sold out within a matter of days last Summer, we encourage you to order your tickets early. We wouldn't want you to miss out on an experience past attendees referred to as "Enchanting!" and "an absolutely perfect Summer evening."
