What the people say:
"We have worked with Leigh Torlage and her Candy Cabaret entertainment on numerous occasions. Most recently on the 8th annual Slurp & Swirl event taking place at Joe Fortes Seafood & Chop House and New Years Eve 2011 event at Goldfish Pacific Kitchen. Both events were extremely successful thanks in large part to our entertainers. Their professionalism, demeanor, attention to detail as well as prep and relentless rehearsal time is admirable. And of course, the talent is unsurpassed!" - Andrea Mestrovic, Director of Marketing & Sales
