“High Heels Cabaret” (Hello, Self… Episode 26)
Host Patricia Leonard is joined by Arlia Hoffman of The Women’s Agency as they announce Patricia’s new production, “High Heels Cabaret.” Patricia shared about what the metaphor of the high heel means, the mission of the Cabaret to engage, inspire and entertain, and its impact on the performers. Patricia gave all the details, and the nonprofits that will benefit from the ticket sales. She also highlighted this as an effective tool she uses with organizations as a performance-based workshop.
The live show of performers will be Friday, August 25th in Nashville at NECAT’s Peg Studios. Proceeds from the show benefit two local non-profits: The Nashville chapter of Women in Film and Television and Nashville Education, Community, and Arts Television (NECAT).

Nashville Education, Community, and Arts Television (NECAT)
NECAT was formed in 2010 after Metro government and the Metro Council combined Metropolitan Educational Access Corporation (MEAC) and Community Access Corporation (CAC). A consolidated Board of Directors was appointed to provide guidance and oversight for the network.
In 2022, NECAT became part of Nashville Public Library.
With a history of community access television reaching back 30 years, the NECAT Network is committed to improving the quantity and quality of its local programming across the board.
The staff and board of NECAT are also committed to more active outreach to the entire middle Tennessee community. NECAT will utilize a consolidated Web site, e-newsletter, open houses and other initiatives to engage residents in a dialogue about programming. Additionally, all board meetings are open to the public.
NECAT is partially funded by Comcast (through its franchise agreement with Metro Government). NECAT operations are supplemented by underwriters and sponsors, fees from producers, and contributions from our viewers. Your support allows us to make public access in Nashville great!
