“Cabaret Indigno” is an encounter between artists from Cancioneiro Queer and the actress, singer and pianist from São Paulo, Cida Moreira. Transiting through an eclectic repertoire, which goes from classical to popular, this scenic-musical show was a tribute to the songbook consecrated by the Dama Indigna (“Unworthy Lady”, name of Cida’s 2010 album), as well as to the Brazilian music from different historical periods. Songs from Brazilian Popular Music, from the Brazilian Musical Theatre, from the German Cabarets of the Weimar Republic (1919-1933), as well as the Modinhas Imperiais (1831) by the Afro-Brazilian composer Lino José Nunes (1789-1847), among others, were presented in a cabaret format.

His famous songs, as well as other less known ones, were interpreted by Marcelo Kuna (tenor), Raissa Brannt (soprano), Leo Mendonza (baritone), Cēo Souza (bass-baritone) Fred Natalino (piano and musical arrangements) and Fausto Borém (double bass).
