Simply Sensational 3!
Join celebrity host, WGN's Dean Richards, who will be ably assisted by comedian/performer Richard Pryor, Jr., as they welcome some of the great entertainers from Chicago's broad landscape of musical theater and cabaret talent for "Simply Sensational 3" to benefit Pride Films and Plays!.  The program will be performed in the thrust space of Stage 773, 1225 West Belmont, on Monday, October 28, 2013.

VIP ticket holders are invited to sample food with a cash bar at Coopers (across the street from Stage 773) at 6. They will also have reserved seating for the performance which begins at 7.

All ticket holders will receive complimentary draft beer or wine from the Stage 773 bar! Intermission features a tasting of a special cocktail mixed for the event by Crew Bar + Grill with Halsted Vodka, and desserts from great Chicago establishments including The Hearty Boys, Bittersweet, Penny's Pastries and Taste of Heaven.

Entertainers for the evening include cabaret star Tom Michael, musical theater stars Sam Button-Harrison and Sharriese Hamilton, and Jenny Lamb representing Light Opera Works. You will recognize Jeff Award winning musical director Robert Olllis at the piano!

You will also see performances from Porchlight Music Theater's Ain't Misbehavin', Haven Theater's The Wedding Singer, Danielle Plisz from About Face Theater's We Three Liza's, and David Schlumpf, the star of Kokandy Productions' Sweet Smell of Success.

Perhaps most intriguing will be the debut of a new song by Leo Schwartz, Jeff Award-winning composer of our musical hit Under A Rainbow Flag, from his new musical Till, about Emmet Till and his mother Mamie.  This scene features Adrienne Walker, Sydney Charles, Daniel Riley, James Nedrud, Sam Button- Harrison, and Edward Fraim.

The event is sponsored in part by Halsted Vodka, Orbitz and The Advocate .
