The shows are slated for Thursday, November 8 and Friday, November 9, 2012 at 8:00 PM (doors open at 7:00 PM) at NoHoPAC (North Hollywood Performing Arts Center), located at 11020 Magnolia Blvd., North Hollywood, Calif. Tickets are available for purchase HERE. Ticket cost is $45.99.

Willis speaks of her journey through the music industry and classic moments of her writing sessions with music icons including Earth, Wind & Fire, The Pointer Sisters and the Pet Shop Boys. Audiences will feel as though they are in Boogie Wonderland as Allee and her band perform hits like the Earth, Wind & Fire smash "September" and many more.Watch a video of her previous show, "Allee Willis' Super Ball Bounce Back Review," for a glimpse of the extravaganza not to be missed.
