UNCASVILLE, CT (February 19, 2025) – The Cabaret Theatre at Mohegan Sun, also now known as “The Cab,” returns with force in 2025 as big-time acts headline marquee shows inside the intimate 450-seat venue in the coming months.

“We are thrilled to welcome back The Cab to our acclaimed entertainment portfolio, joining Mohegan Sun Arena and The Wolf Den,” said Tom Cantone, President of Sports & Entertainment for Mohegan. “The Cab is a unique and intimate venue that has hosted many memorable shows over the years. Returning to live entertainment now gives our guests more variety and diverse entertainment options in three very unique, award-winning venues.”

He hit the ground running and performed 100 shows in just nine months, and within three years, Anthony has gained a massive fan base online and around the country. In a very short time, Anthony gained over 900,000 social media followers and his YouTube videos have amassed over 22 million views. Rodia’s comedy pulls from his real life and razor-sharp observations on marriage, parenthood, road rage, and everything else worthy of a social media rant.

Ticket information for Jason Ledanye is forthcoming. Guests are encouraged to check out mohegansun.com/entertainment for details!
The Bacon Brothers
Saturday, September 13th | 7:00pm
For The Bacon Brothers, music is all about exploration. Michael and Kevin Bacon have spent the better part of three decades creating their own mix of Folk, Rock, Soul, and Country music. They call that diverse sound “forosoco,” and it’s taken them around the world, from headlining gigs in Japan to American performances at iconic venues like Carnegie Hall, the Grand Ole Opry and Gruene Hall. The two siblings may be bound together by blood and a mutual love of American Roots music, but they’ve grown into sharp songwriters and cinematic storytellers with their own distinct approaches. Ballad Of The Brothers makes room for both of those approaches, offering a mix of edgy Alt-Rock (“Take Off This Tattoo”), Motown-inspired Soul (“Put Your Hand Up”), fingerpicked Folk (“Let That Be Enough”), and everything in between.
