Show Announcement: KATBARET!
More balls than the Grey Cup!
Music laughter dancing love shenanigans!
120 Diner
120 Church Street Toronto ON
Civil Wray!
Civil Wray marks a personal and professional change for Andrea de Boer. Andrea takes both musical and personal chances with Civil Wray, offering an indie rock vibe, a twinge of country, and an infusion of Latin pop and soul that elevates her trademark smoky vocals.
Jessica Stuart!
Many are called, but the chosen are The Jessica Stuart Few. Simply put, when you’re the only ‘koto’ (a traditional Japanese 13-stringed instrument) playing indie singer-songwriter in the world, whose trademark red hair and genre-bending dancefloor grooves have taken you on multiple tours throughout Asia and Australia, despite being Vancouver born and a long-time Toronto native, you’re bound to raise an eyebrow or 2000.
And me– Kat Leonard!
Explosive irreverent theatrical musical comedy that leaves you with the drunken joy of a sugar rush. Building self-esteem, confidence and creativity.
No Cover! Pay What You Can into the bucket if you want to!
Tune into our FB Live feed from Kat Leonard World if you can’t make it live! If we can’t sit in your lap, we can blow you a kiss! NB: 120 Diner has deeeelicious foodstuffs!

KATBARET The First! (TBT)
KATBARET: Wherein I do what I want with my friends! Music! Laughter! Stories! This was the first ever live KATBARET, held at Free Times Cafe in Toronto June 2016.
#FierceFun
I cover Arlene Paculan’s My Plea— with her help!
I cover Heather Hill’s Last Train— with her help!
One of my favourite songs to perform is Jewel’s Foolish Games.
This song is like a prodigal son for me.
It either comes off like the sound of heaven or I eff it up completely.
It is always a surprise– just like life. And I love to play it like I love to play in life!

KATBARET: BAGEL VIDEO!
KATBARET! Bagels! Laughter! Tears! #FierceFun
KATAPTATION: (What is a KATAPTATION? It’s an adaptation by KAT!) This is my Kataptation of Beyonce’s epic Halo. This has quickly turned into a fan favourite for me too and I soooooo enjoy performing it! For those who haven’t seen it, and especially for those who can’t get enough of seeing it, here is Bagel! I dedicate it to the bagel muncher in us all! Thank you, Bey! 🙂
This is an original! EVERLASTIC
Backup Dancers: Carla Gonzalez and Raquel Victoria
Crowd: Amazing beautiful souls at 120 Diner in Toronto
KATAPTATION: This is the special dance finale from a KATBARET. This is my way of making music with my idol Madonna. It is a special mix of her instrumentals and my lyrics, taken from my one-woman show A Depper Kind Of Love about loving Johnny Depp. I call it Rhapsody! And with it I invite a dance party! Look at the gorgeous people here!
Stay tuned for the next live episode of KATBARET expected Spring/Summer 2017! And please send any requests along– you might just spark a KATAPTATION!
Lots of love, everybuddy!
