MANSFIELD, OH (CRAWFORD COUNTY NOW) — Vocalist and actress Leiah Lewis will bring her powerful and personal show, “Reflection,” to the Renaissance Theatre’s Ghostlight Cabaret on Friday, May 30, 2025, at 7:30 PM.
The Ghostlight Cabaret series, held in the intimate, candlelit Ghostlight Lounge within the historic 1928 theater, offers a close-up experience reminiscent of cabaret’s golden age. The limited seating of 80 per performance includes live music, desserts, and drinks.
Lewis, a familiar face at the Renaissance with credits including “Rock of Ages,” “Cabaret,” and “Dreamgirls,” has also recently toured nationally in productions of “Hairspray,” “Escape to Margaritaville” at Broadway Palm, and “Music in Motion” at Highlands Playhouse.
“Reflection” will feature a range of musical styles, including pop, soul, gospel, and Broadway favorites. The setlist includes songs by Aretha Franklin and Alicia Keys, as well as showstopping numbers from “Wicked,” “Ragtime,” and “The Color Purple.” The performance promises to be a heartfelt and dynamic journey through Lewis’s musical experiences.
“Leiah’s voice and spirit are simply electric,” said Michael Thomas, director of the cabaret series. “Whether she’s performing a Broadway ballad or a soulful anthem, she commands the stage with honesty, heart, and joy. This show is going to be something truly special.”
Tickets are $25 and include desserts, drinks, and the live entertainment. Due to limited seating, tickets are expected to sell quickly.
The event will be held at the Ghostlight Lounge at the Renaissance Theatre, located at 138 Park Avenue West in Mansfield. Tickets can be purchased online at www.rentickets.org or by calling 419-522-2726.
