Today's theme is "cabaret", in honor of The Cabaret Project of St. Louis open mic night.

"I don't know how to explain how, probably to my detriment, unselfpromoting I am. I used to have a cabaret act and I didn't even like to tell me people about that. I really hate selling myself." - Zooey Deschanel

"I am the last of the Mohicans, the creme de la creme of cabaret." - Eartha Kitt

"A cabaret song has got to be written - for the middle voice, ideally - because you've got to hear the wit of the words. And a cabaret song gives the singer room to act, more even than an opera singer." - James Fenton
