CHI: "IT'S AN ART" THE SONGS OF STEPHEN SCHWARTZ AT DAVENPORTS


CHI: "IT'S AN ART" THE SONGS OF STEPHEN SCHWARTZ

For 3 nights only, the songs of multiple Academy and Grammy Award winner Stephen Schwartz will be performed by some of Chicago's leading musical theater talent at DAVENPORT'S (1383 North Milwaukee Avenue, Chicago, IL - 773-278-1830) in the show "It's An Art". On Sundays, May 2nd, 9th & 16th at 7:30 pm, Charissa Armon, Courtney Freed and Ryan Lanning will perform not just the feature songs from Schwartz's hit musicals Godspell, Pippin, and Wicked, but also lesser-known treasures from The Magic Show, The Baker's Wife, Working, Rags, Children of Eden, and Captain Louie, as well as commentary on Schwartz's creative process. The show promises to go behind the music with the songs of this Broadway legend. Also, a copy of Carol de Giere's book, Defying Gravity: The Creative Career of Stephen Schwartz, will be given away at each performance. Every audience member will have the chance to answer a Schwartz-related trivia question, and those who answer correctly will be placed in a drawing to win the book. The shows are hosted and directed by Christopher Pazdernik. There is a $13 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
