Broadway For The Bradley

Berlin-based American Gaines Hall Jr, a star of the European stage, appears sixty miles south of Chicago to present a one-time-only one-man show of numbers from Broadway and the Great American Songbook. Gaines will sing, tap, show-dance, and between numbers relate stories about the shows and songs and his twenty-year career performing them. Following the presentation, audience members may join Gaines at a VIP reception. Those selecting this option will enjoy reserved-section seating at the show, plus an intimate catered gathering with the star in an architectural landmark: Frank Lloyd Wright's B. Harley Bradley House. The event is a benefit for Wright In Kankakee, the nonprofit organization which owns the Bradley House and is making it available to the public.
