🎭 Discover Canada's Best Solo Musical Cabaret Performances

Who We Are – A New Voice for Canadian Solo Cabaret

Welcome to mickeyandjudy.ca! 🎉 We're a brand-new team of cabaret lovers passionate about sharing the magic of solo musical cabaret performances across Canada. Our collective came together in Toronto in early 2025, united by our love of storytelling, musical memoir shows, and the joy of live cabaret.

We noticed a gap-while big musical productions get plenty of buzz, Canada's dynamic solo artist scene was missing a true digital home. That's why we built mickeyandjudy.ca-to celebrate and spotlight everyone from Judy Garland tribute performers to emerging one-man musical theatre stars.

Our mission is simple: Reveal and support the best solo cabaret performers, help fans find new shows, and inspire more Canadians to fall in love with this unique art form. Every week, our independent team connects with venues from Vancouver to Halifax to find the latest Fringe Festival cabaret acts, Broadway songbook concerts, and musical memoir shows capturing hearts this season.
