Palladium Theater<\/a>, especially its basement cabaret, is an exemplar of community. It regularly hosts homegrown talent and this week welcomes Zeta the Babe<\/a> who hosts a vulnerable open-mic style narrative show that benefits The Studio @620. <\/p>\n

The gig couldn\u2019t have come at a better time either. Just this month, the Pinellas County Commission approved $2.5 million from tourist tax dollars for the 100-year-old former church\u2019s renovation that will cost $13 million. Palladium\u2019s Executive Director Paul Wilborn told St. Pete Catalys<\/a>t that about $10.8 million is in hand, from private donors, the State of Florida and the City of St. Petersburg.<\/p>\n

Tickets to see Zeta the Babe play Side Door Cabaret at Palladium Theater in St. Petersburg are still available and start at $25.<\/a><\/p>\n
