The Summer Concert Series presented by Facebook features a variety of musical styles from Jazz to Country to hits of today and yesterday. Bring your picnic blanket and dinner, and of course there is always room for dancers of all ages.

JIVE: A Comedy by Susan Rabin
Windy City Productions presents a comedy by Susan Rabin:  JIVE

JIVE is an outrageous comedy, but at its core is a story of human relationships and the search for honesty and fairness. When the fictional K-JIVE radio station explores replacing jazz programming with “shock-talk” to be more relevant, the characters clash.
