On Friday, September 26, Cafe Paradiso welcomes Fairfield performers Lee Ross and Meredith Siemsen for a comedic night of “Cirque & Cinema Stories,” two wildly entertaining behind-the-scenes tales from their former lives on the stage and screen. With a career that began in standup comedy and evolved into mime performance, award-winning screenplay writer Lee Ross will recall his outrageous, once-upon-a-time overseas tour as the lead clown for Cirque du Soleil’s “Saltimbanco” show. Actor-writer Meredith Siemsen will open the night with the hilarious, high-stakes story of the movie role that almost took her down for the count. “From unhinged Russian gymnasts and onset moviemaking mayhem—to magical twists in life that you never see coming,” says Ross, “it’s going to be a rollercoaster night of storytelling!” Arrive early if you want a good seat.

Our open mic is among the finest in the entire Midwest featuring local, regional and national acts passing through town. The smoke-free atmosphere is relaxed with dim lighting and candles on the tables with teas, natural juices and locally ground coffee and fresh baked goods. Performers sign up at 7:15pm for a 10 min slot. Come early as the list fills up right away. We run a tight ship with quick stage changes. MC'd by the members of Fairfield community with professional equipment and sound by master musician Tim Britton. We have a very quiet attentive and appreciative audience of 20-50 people each week. We can accommodate duos, trios etc. Also non musical acts such as mime, dance, comedy, magic are also welcome. Amateurs welcome, just be open and sincere and the crowd will love you.
