Share in the unexpected encounters between these legendary divas and the ordinary women whose lives were changed by their brush with fame. Featuring such favorites as "Come Rain or Come Shine," "Crazy," and "Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do," Bethany Thomas has been on the Chicago scene staring in many musicals and won a Jeff Award for her role in "South Pacific." "Songs for Nobodies" illuminates the power of song to share a story, heal a heartbreak, and inspire a dream. As a bonus, our performance will have a 30 minute Post-Show Discussion! We will enjoy a delicious lunch at L. Woods Tap & Pine Lodge, a Wisconsin supper club inspired restaurant.
