Due to Hurricane Sandy, Halloween is now in December as Anna Copa Cabanna brings you a NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS. Oh Unholy Night!!


If you are a fan of the 70s and 80s TV Variety shows, you will love THE ANNA COPA CABANNA SHOW!
 
Australian showgirl Anna Copa Cabanna's Rock and Roll Variety Show draws inspiration from The Muppet Show, Solid Gold, The Brady Bunch Variety Hour, and The Carol Burnett Show!.THE ANNA COPA CABANNA SHOW's primary goal is transporting the audience to a world of glamor, humor, overly earnest but beautiful dancing, and classic rock and roll!  
 
The TRUTH- in a sequin leotard.
 
Along with her lounge/punk band The MG5, Anna breathes new life into classic tunes you LOVE, while her sparkling originals reflect upon New York City's politics, small dogs, F trains, and malnourished boys with her little xylophone and voracious voice.

A New York Original

Absolutely one of the most original performers around today. Anna Copa channels the sprit, energy and essence of Carol Channing, Goldie Hawn circa Laugh In, and Ethel Merman's disco album. Combining the winking 'Teach Me Tiger' innocence of rock xylophone solos, glittered golden bikinis, and Olivia Newton John-esque work out dance moves on Crystal Meth, with motor city backbeats and ass shaking grooves, Miss Cabana brings a merriment, sensuality, and gravity to the New York down town cabaret scene, rarely seen in today's post Gaga-influenced ladies of the late night crowd. Go see her.

My favourite show ever!

Anna Copacabanna is an amazing performer, and her show is outrageously funny, touching and entertaining. I look forward to it months in advance, and I'm really hoping it will be rescheduled asap!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Anna Copa Cabanna Show! While I was sad to hear that tonight's show has been cancelled, thanks to the hurricane aftermath, I am really hoping to hear some good news about a new date. Please? xo

The Anna Copa Cabanna Show is a marvel! Beautiful, brilliant, musical, fun, funny, exciting, and most of all original. There is nothing else like it. Anna is a creative genius.
