On Thursday and Friday, May 28 & 29, 2009, Chicago will have the opportunity to enjoy a very special presentation of "Glamour Tango" - a show conceived and performed by women, "dedicated to other women who participated silently in the key pages of the genre's history." Some of us know and treasure "Glamour Tango's" creator and musical director, Polly Ferman. The show - as you can see from the attached material - features beautiful tangos with performances not only by Chicago's own Julie Koiden (flute) but also Tango Con*Fusion of San Francisco featuring Leroy & my dear friends Christy Cote and Chelsea Eng.
The performances, sponsored by the Latino Cultural Center of Chicago, will be at the Logan Square Auditorium (2539 N Kedzie Ave, directly across Logan 'Square' from the Blue Line stop) at 7:30 p on Thursday, May 28 and Friday, May 29. Tickets are $25.
