“The Cat’s Pajamas” Cabaret Show & Film Night | Mission

Submitted by the Event Organizer

The Cat’s Pajamas monthly cabaret presents an American Pop Parable: a night of storytelling, blessings, words, and music.

We’ll be celebrating all the different cultures that have influenced America.

Includes a showing of the 1981 animated film American Pop. About four generations of a Russian Jewish immigrant family of musicians whose careers parallel the history of American popular music. The majority of the film’s animation was completed through rotoscoping and mixed media including water colors, computer graphics, live action shots, and archival footage.

PERFORMERS:

• MamaCoAtl Chantiko — From seductress to revolutionary to Earth Mother San Francisco-based singer MamaCoAtl is a performer unafraid to sing and speak about our turbulent times. Her sharp lyrics are social commentary laced with poems and prayers.
