Five women marching with drums with the title of Lakeside Pride Wilde Cabaret's Sisters are Doing It For Themselves show title
As we celebrate Women's History Month, we honor the indelible contributions of women to music and history. From the soul-stirring melodies of Billie Holiday to the groundbreaking compositions of Clara Schumann, women have shaped the very fabric of musical expression across genres and generations. Their resilience and creativity have transcended barriers, inspiring countless individuals and movements. From the suffragettes marching to the rhythm of their own anthem to the fierce voices of contemporary artists advocating for change, women have used music as a powerful tool for social progress and empowerment.  The Lakeside Pride Wilde Cabaret invites you to join us as we reflect on women's historic achievements, celebrate their legacies, and amplify their voices.

ABOUT THIS SEASON

Lakeside Pride Music Ensembles embarks on a new chapter of self-discovery and connection with our surroundings with our 27th season – “It’s Our Nature.”

By surrounding ourselves with our chosen family, shaping our environment to create a brave and safe space, and finding common ground with all people, we will see that we’re not all that different. It’s in our DNA to care for others and form a community, for we are stronger together than we are apart. Together, we care for each other and our planet to build a resilient future.
