Dubbed "Chicago's Entertainer", Ron Hawking will appear Tuesday, October 6 for two performances only of his hit show The Men and Their Music at Drury Lane Oakbrook, 100 Drury Lane, Oakbrook Terrace, IL. This performance follows two successful and critically acclaimed runs of Hawking's His Way - A Tribute to the Man and His Music and The Men and Their Music at Chicago's Mercury Theater. Expanding on the thriving demand for the musical style of artists like Sinatra, Ron Hawking's performance provides audiences with a repertoire of iconic numbers from many great male vocalists of all time including, Bobby Darin, Ray Charles, Billy Joel, and Frankie Valli, to name a few.

Ron Hawking's success is rooted in his ability to seamlessly step in and out of each personality he portrays on the stage. Going well beyond simply creating an impersonation, Hawking has an uncanny talent to reinterpret and redeliver each song with the same charm and charisma that made the original artists so beloved. With classic style and sophistication, The Men and Their Music, is the perfect reflection to the energy and enthusiasm of big band music, Vegas lounge singers, and musical legends.

Hawking has performed at New York's Carnegie Hall with the Philly Pops Orchestra and has opened for such notables as Carol Channing, Sheena Easton, Robert Klein, and The Temptations. In addition to being an accomplished vocalist, he is also one of the country's leading impressionists. Hawking created and has been performing his one man "Lively Art of Impressionism" show for corporate events and fund raisers since 1988.
