Wichita’s Roxy’s Downtown presents a true Cabaret event

Roxy’s Downtown, Wichita’s Cabaret, brings a true Cabaret event – Party of 1 – to their stage. The show opened on April 22, and continues through May 21.

Party of One is an original musical revue about being single. The tone is mostly humorous, but, at times touching and poignant. The songs and sketches focus on such topics as the frustrations of dating, relationships, making connections, communicating, the pressures to hook up with another, discrimination against singles and the joys and rewards of singlehood.

It presents the views of both sexes. The tone is upbeat and fun. Audiences relate to it. Party of One appeals to audiences of all demographic groups, being a show "for everyone who is, or has ever been, single." 

Party of One is San Francisco's longest running original musical, having played there for seven years, moving from The Cable Car Theater to The Plush Room to The City Cabaret, and, finally, to The New Conservatory Theater.

Productions have had successful runs in Boston, Vancouver, San Diego, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Tampa, Aspen, Maui and Seattle, as well as in other venues. Its run at New York's Don't Tell Mama won the Back Stage Bistro Award for Outstanding Cabaret Revue.

Roxy’s presents Party of 1 Friday and Saturday nights through May 21. Tickets range from $20 to $30, with dinner offered for an additional $15. Reserve your tickets by calling (316) 265-4400. Tickets can be paid for at time or reservation, or at the door. Roxy’s Downtown is located at 412 1/2 E. Douglas, in Wichita.
