Preview - July 9
Blending renditions of Broadway, pop, and jazz standards with Greek, African, and contemporary mythology, Godless is a journey through a glittering world of gossiping gods, fabulous muses, and mischievous mortals, all in search of their divine destiny.
In this brand-new cabaret show, Rotimi Agbabiaka (Hook in Panto In The Presidio’s sold-out Peter Pan) tells the tale of Dion Damilola Lokinaesha Divine—a lowly nymph who dreams of someday becoming a big-time god on Mount Olympus!
Rotimi Agbabiaka is a San Francisco-based performer who has thrilled audiences of Panto in the Presidio as the deliciously villainous Hook and Hernia the Witch. A veteran of Beach Blanket Babylon and the San Francisco Mime Troupe, Rotimi has appeared in theatre, drag, and performance art productions from Off-Broadway to the Bay, with such companies as Playwright’s Horizons, the Folger Shakespeare Theatre, Yale Repertory Theatre, American Conservatory Theatre, OASIS, and The Stud. His award-winning one-man shows have toured the nation, receiving acclaim for his “fabulously charismatic” (DC Metro Weekly) and “whimsical” (The New York Times) performances. He most recently played the EmCee in Cabaret (CenterREP) and appeared in the dance theater piece, Are You Okay? with Joe Goode Performance Group.
Godless performances will take place in the Presidio Theatre's intimate 50-seat Black Box Studio.
Seating is cabaret style, general admission, and first-come first-served.
