Black Ensemble Theater, under the direction of founder & CEO Jackie Taylor, will host a special one night-only Valentine's Day event featuring some of the most famous love songs of all time performed by Black Ensemble performers Rick Stone, Dawn Bless, RaShawn Thompson, Lyle Miller, Melanie McCullough, David Simmons, Theo Huff, Katrina Miller, Lawrence Williams, Rueben Echoles, Carrie Abernathy, Stori Johnson and Daryl Brooks. The one-night only cabaret is February 14, 2012 at 7:30pm at the Black Ensemble Theater Cultural Center, 4450 N. Clark Street.

Love songs, including Al Green's "Love and Happiness," Otis Redding's "Try A Little Tenderness" and Etta James' "At Last," will fill the Black Ensemble Theater's second floor, which will be turned into "The Love Club" with a four-piece band, champagne and sweets for all the sweethearts in the house. The evening will include music, dance and Ms. Dawn as the comedic host for the evening. 

"There's nothing more fitting than to spend Valentine's Day celebrating some of the best loved songs of all time," Jackie Taylor said. "Black Ensemble's new building will set the scene with our live, four-piece band and performers for a memorable and romantic evening." 

Tickets for For Lover's Only (And For People Who Love Themselves) are $125 per couple and $65.00 for single tickets. The evening will also include champagne and desserts. Tickets are available at www.ticketmaster.com or (773) 769-4451.
