Jane Lynch and Kate Flannery, renowned for their roles in hit television shows, are set to perform their cabaret show titled “The Trouble With Angels” in Birmingham on March 1, 2026. The performance will take place at the Alys Stephens Center’s Jemison Concert Hall at 7 p.m., with tickets priced between $59 and $89 available through the Stephens Center website.
“The Trouble With Angels” combines music and stand-up comedy, celebrating the duo’s chemistry and talents. The show promises an engaging night filled with musical numbers and witty banter, reminiscent of the Rat Pack but with a feminine twist featuring “powerhouse vocals, razor-sharp wit, and more than a few surprises.”
Both Lynch and Flannery have shared a long-standing partnership that began during their time with The Second City improv troupe in Chicago in the late 1980s. They initially sang together for enjoyment before transitioning into performances for various events, which ultimately led to their current touring show. Previously, they have collaborated on productions like “A Swingin’ Little Christmas” during the holiday season and the cabaret show “Two Lost Souls.”
Despite the popularity of Lynch and Flannery, their performances in Alabama have been rare, making the Birmingham show a highly anticipated event. Lynch has expressed a personal connection to Birmingham through her ex-wife, who hails from the city, and has fond memories of dining experiences in the area. Additionally, Lynch has extensive accolades, including roles in shows such as “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” and “Only Murders in the Building”, while Flannery appeared in “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” and participated in “Dancing with the Stars”.
As they prepare for Birmingham, Lynch and Flannery are planning additional performances for “A Swingin’ Little Christmas” in December. Their continuous touring signifies that “The Trouble With Angels” will relaunch in January 2026, with further engagements lined up for August and September of that year, concluding a total of approximately a dozen performances.
Jane Lynch, aged 65, has garnered multiple Emmy and Golden Globe awards and boasts an illustrious career on Broadway, featuring in revivals of “Annie” and “Funny Girl”. Lynch also possesses a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and a successful film career with notable appearances in movies such as “Best in Show” and “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”. Meanwhile, Kate Flannery, now 61, has built her career largely through television roles and continues to be a strong presence in the entertainment industry.
