Raue Center's diva in residence, Lynne Jordan, weaves a magic spell just in time for Halloween! See Jordan's special brand of storytelling, raw humor, and performance that has made her a favorite daughter of Chicago for over 30 years on October 30 at 8 pm.

"We are thrilled to be working with Lynne over the next year as we explore and create new work with this exceptional artist," says Raue Center executive director Richard Kuranda.

In a city brimming with classic blues and jazz voices, Lynne Jordan's voice stands out as vocalist, bandleader, solo performer, and storyteller. Drawing upon her own personal stories gleaned from 58 years of living, her experiences are poignant, often funny, and always accompanied by a song. Her talent so dazzled the Second City that the late Chicago film critic Roger Ebert declared her his "favorite diva."

Jordan has performed internationally as well; in France in a jazz opera as well tours with her band the Shivers in Brazil, France, Latvia, Ukraine, and Russia.
