Johnny Mercer provided 1500 lyrics for 230 different composers, undoubtedly the most versatile and adaptable writer in the Great American Songbook. He was alternately slangy and folksy, sophisticated and urbane, excitedly childlike, elegantly sensuous, and achingly nostalgic. Join Chicago cabaret singer Jeff Dean along with musical director Beckie Menzie as they explore Johnny's life, loves and music. Tickets: $22. At Skokie Theatre, 7924 Lincoln Ave, Downtown Skokie.
