Storm Wade
Storm Wade is no stranger to commanding a stage. With a name that already turns heads, Storm brings a voice that soars even higher. Known for his powerful rock tenor, he first honed his craft in college and went on to front the hard-hitting rock band Throne of Eden. His style fuses energy and emotion, making him the perfect fit for the cabaret’s rock-infused holiday sound. When Storm takes the mic for numbers like Mellencamp’s “I Saw Mama Kissing Santa Claus” or the driving “Rock and Roll Christmas” by George Thorogood, expect the audience to be on its feet.
Patricia Garner
Patricia Garner brings a different but equally compelling dimension to the evening. Born in New York City and raised in a family rooted in the arts—her mother a Juilliard-trained opera singer—Patricia began her performance journey later in life, stepping into the spotlight in her 40s. Since then, she has made up for lost time with roles in productions like LOL Always a Bridesmaid and Rock of Ages with the Hub City Players, as well as memorable appearances in FestivalSouth shows such as Beauty and the Beast and Iconic. With her rich, versatile voice and commanding presence, Patricia will bring both warmth and dramatic flair to the holiday classics.
