Bio: "Widemouth has been playing bars and venues around Chicago since coming together in January, culminating in the Winnetka Music Festival at the end of June, where we shared the stage with headliners Milky Chance and Band of Horses. We released two songs in January, both on Makena Lei’s solo record (a member of the band), one of which was listed on Rolling Stones’ “Songs You Need to Know.” You can find that record here. We have an as-yet-untitled EP coming out in late September, which this tour will be in support of."

This week! Vicki Summers is performing her one-woman show, Bella An Immigrant's Tale on Wednesday, August 21, at 7:00 PM. Reception to follow!
Bella, An Immigrant’s Tale is a one woman show that follows the life journey of Bella Indianer, a Russian Jewish immigrant who survived the pogroms in Russia (modern day Ukraine), and later emigrated to America in 1920. The play is performed and written by her granddaughter, Vicki Summers, who portrays numerous characters throughout the performance. It is a story of resilience, courage, humor and love, universal themes that touch us all. In addition to touring the play around the US, in 2019, Vicki was honored to have been selected to perform the play at the LA Women's Theater Festival in Los Angeles, CA.
The play is followed by a brief slideshow with photos of the actual people portrayed in the play dating back to the early 1900's, as well as a Q&A. It is appropriate for ages 10 and up.
*For more information, please check out Vicki's website: vicki-summers.com

Ben Lovell explains why FernGully is his "Favorite Movie of all time."
