Description
"The Kitchenette's DINING AT THE BANQUET, it was so thrilling! A feast of delicious vocals!" --- Stu Hamstra, www.CabaretHotlineOnline.com
*****
Take one earthy contralto, mix in a flirtatious mezzo, and top off with an impishly glorious soprano.... add tasty arrangements, juicy patter; sprinkle generously with humor and zesty innuendo, and you've got a recipe for a terrific evening of cabaret whether you see them live or listen to them on tape.
"This is a group you like the moment they're on stage. Their magnificent voices are beautifully blended. [They] know how to please an audience." - Jerry Friedman, KGO-AM Radio Entertainment
"Three lovely songbirds - a talented Bay Area ensemble with a unique spin on musical expression. Musically nutritious and certainly food for thought." - L. Pierce Carson, Napa Valley Register
"One hot trio that out sings and out swings the Andrews Sisters." - Rob Bailis, Theater Director, ODC Theater
The Kitchenettes - Linda Kosut, Eryka Raines and Lua Hadar - treat the audience to a full spectrum of emotions and styles, from comedic and saucy trios to lyric and soulful solos, showcasing the individual and collective talents of this stunning trio of San Francisco-based vocal artists ...
* Linda Kosut, a lush chardonnay, mouth-filling flavors of toasty oak with a lingering finish
* Eryka Raines, a frisky nouveau that melds the musky intensity of velvet with an exuberantly spicy finish
* Lua Hadar, a sparkling spumante that begs to be drunk
In April 2003, The Kitchenettes premiered the new version of their show DINE, Where Food & Lust Burst Into Song at Napa's COPIA: The American Center for Wine, Food & The Arts, to critical acclaim. They received a standing ovation at their June performance of DINE at San Francisco's Plush Room. At both of these performances, The Kitchenettes were accompanied by their long-time San Francisco musical director, Barry Lloyd who can be heard playing on their CD, "Dining at the Banquet." The Kitchenettes also appeared at the Italian National Festival of Comic Songs & Songwriters in September 2003, accompanied by New York pianist Sheldon Forrest.
LUA HADAR has become a presence on the San Francisco cabaret scene since her move here from her native New York City over 10 years ago. Her solo cabaret show, "My Foolish Heart," introduced audiences to the joyousness and ease with which this singer-actress can deliver a wide range of musical styles. Since then, the lush-voiced comedienne has appeared at all of San Francisco's major cabaret venues. Known for her international cabaret repertoire and pure, rich voice, Lua appeared for many weeks at Union Street's Caf de Paris, following a featured concert at the cabaret festival in Breno, Italy. Lua performed with Barry Lloyd in an all-French cabaret program for the opening of the Palace of the Legion of Honor's exhibit, "Toulouse Lautrec & The Spirit of Montmartre: Cabaret, Humor and the Avant-Garde, 1875-1905." Together with Linda Kosut, she is the producer and host of Thick Tuesdays, a salon for cabaret singers and their audiences. The Kitchenettes also perform at Pea Pacha Mama, live music club and restaurant in San Francisco's North Beach on the first Thursday of every month.
LINDA KOSUT moved to the San Francisco Bay Area over 15 years ago from her native New York City where she began her cabaret career at the former Jan Wallman's in the Village, among other cabaret venues. A smoky contralto, Linda is a stylish, moving and entertaining performer. Linda delights audiences with the array of musical styles and emotions she delivers in her performance. She is best known for her passionate and interpretive skill with lyrics and the "story" song. Linda has performed in all of San Francisco's major cabaret venues and, together with Lua Hadar, produced and performed "It's My Party... a cabaret souffl in the key of Now!" at the Larkspur Caf Theatre and at The White Barn Theatre in St. Helena. Linda's solo CD, "Life is but a dream" is available on CD Baby. Linda is a 1990 Fellow of the Cabaret Symposium of the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center.

Companies include The San Jose Repertory Theatre, The American Conservatory Theater, the Aurora Theatre, the Willows Theatre Company, 42nd St. Moon and Word for Word Performing Arts Company.
