By: Caryn Robbins
Come join international TV and music celebrity Jordan von Haslow (Dr. Miami - WeTV) and jazz/blues vocalist Jenifer French (The Peggy Lee Legacy) for the happiest holiday show this season, "Mistletoe & Martinis!" Joined by musical guests and friends Daryl Nitz, Beckie Menzie, Jim Cox, and Phil Gratteau, this holiday extravaganza will take place on Friday, December 15 at 8pm at Davenport's Piano Bar, 1383 N. Milwaukee Avenue, Chicago. There is a $22 cover charge and two-drink minimum. Due to high demand, reservations are strongly encouraged by calling 773-278-1830 or online at www.DavenportsPianoBar.com.
In the spirit of the giving season, please bring at least one new and unwrapped toy. Two U.S. Marines have been invited to collect toys before and after the show for "Toys For Tots" for the less fortunate children in Cook County. "Mistletoe and Martinis!" reunites Jordan von Haslow and Jenifer French for the first time since their "Bosom Buddies" duet show at NYC's famed Don't Tell Mama. They'll be swinging your favorite Christmas standard joined by Chicago cabaret favorite, vocalist Daryl Nitz (show director) and backed by the hottest jazz trio in town (Beckie Menzie on piano, vocals and musical director; Jim Cox on bass; and Phil Gratteau on drums.) This fun and festive evening promises to get you into the holiday spirit. With an open and giving heart, get ready to sing along to your favorite holiday songs of the season, while helping "Toys for Tots" to make Christmas a little brighter for less fortunate children of Cook County.
