Avenel Performing Arts Center presents Confessions of a Showgirl

originally published: 06/16/2024


(AVENEL, NJ) -- The Avenel Performing Arts Center presents Confessions of a Showgirl from August 1-3, 2024. Starring Maren Wade from NBC's America's Got Talent, this cabaret brings to life the quirky, hilarious and unfiltered account of a modern-day showgirl, onstage and off. This showgirl confesses to what it was like working with Wayne Newton, getting stuck in a birthday cake, meeting Mariah Carey, impersonating a Madonna impersonator and much more.

The show is musically directed by Keith Thompson (Jersey Boys, Mamma Mia, We Will Rock You) and features a variety of music from pop, jazz, musical theater to one of a kind medleys and originals.

You’ll laugh, you’ll cry and you’ll leave inspired as Maren Wade takes you on a journey through modern-day Vegas, redefining what it really means to be a showgirl.

Tickets are $39.50 (plus fees) and available for purchase online.  Avenel Performing Arts Center is located at 150 Avenel Street in Avenel, New Jersey.
