"MUSICAL THEATER LOVING FRIENDS, IF YOU'RE NOT AT MUSICAL MONDAYS ON THE FIRST MONDAY OF THE MONTH, YOU ARE MISSING OUT!" -- CHERRY AND SPOON
MUSICAL MONDAYS is a monthly cabaret series featuring musical theatre performers in the Twin Cities, presented on the first Monday of every month.
Founded in November 2012 by Sheena Janson Kelley and Max Wojtanowicz, Musical Mondays aims to provide performance opportunities for local artists as well as a fun and casual "industry night" networking experience for the Twin Cities theatre community. Each Musical Monday is comprised of a roughly 90-minute set of musical theatre and cabaret songs compiled by the musicians and the curators. To date, over 400 people have performed on the Musical Mondays stage!
The series was hosted at Hell's Kitchen until 2017, when it moved to LUSH in northeast Minneapolis. After seven and a half years and 79 shows, Musical Mondays was put on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic and successfully re-launched in December 2022!
