Upcoming Suzanne and Bob Events
Dear Friends,
Welcome to the 2020's!!
Can you believe that January is over??
2019 was so insane…It was a crazy, busy year dear friends, what a time it's been!
Just nonstop overwhelm, multitasking, using both sides of my brain and getting it all done… I need a rest!
We just want to thank everybody for supporting us in every venture, our first big benefit for Perennial Theater and all that entailed, our 21st Anniversary Gala Benefit for Chicago Cabaret Professionals, and our fundraiser, "SuzBo and Friends" with Bob Moreen, Lynne Jordan, John Eskola, John Mohrlein, Elizabeth Doyle and Kathleen Lawlor, which was incredibly fun but overwhelmed by the other ones!
Thanks to the fabulous audience of beautiful people who came to support us! With all the shows and benefits it was hard to promote our show but you guys came out and we appreciate it so much. we will do more Bob and I thank you all!
Of course there were many other shows including SagAftra Radio Shows The Shipment of Mute Fate, Gunsmoke, Life of Riley and The Philadelphia Story. What a joy to play Tracy Lord twice with a brilliant cast of actors/friends, including our great Director Bob Maher and Producer, Herb Lichtenstein.
