The long-running Cabaret 88 series is a unique theatrical experience taking place at the Annenberg Theater, inside Palm Springs Art Museum. The stage of the Annenberg Theater is transformed into an elegant cabaret room, with guests seated at tables mere feet from the performer and the piano, creating an unforgettable intimate evening of music.

Producer Scott Nevins curates a roster of guest artists featuring some of the best musical talent from the worlds of Broadway, TV and the recording industry, with each artist performing four shows––Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday night. Each evening begins with a beautiful hosted reception for audience members in the Meyerman Sculpture Garden before they enter the theater for an exquisite live performance.
