Heather Lundstedt O'Neill to Bring Frank Loesser Tribute to The Skokie Theatre

Join celebrated Southern California Musical Theatre star Heather Lundstedt O'Neill as she pays homage to the work of one of America's most accomplished composer/lyricists in "Loesser Known: The Stories and Songs of Frank Loesser".

Composer and lyricist of GUYS AND DOLLS, THE MOST HAPPY FELLA, and HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING and the winner of an Oscar, a Tony, a Pulitzer Prize and a Grammy Award... Frank Loesser has written some of the most beautiful and well known tunes in the Great American Songbook, yet many don't know his name. With hits such as "Baby, It's Cold Outside", "[I'd Like to Get You] On a Slow Boat to China", "Luck Be a Lady", "I Believe in You", "Heart and Soul" and "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve" and many, many more, it's rare to find a person who has not been introduced to Mr. Loesser's work.

Heather Lundstedt O'Neill takes audiences on the journey of an impulsive, devilishly funny college dropout who defied the odds and achieved success many could only dream of, leaving behind hundreds of songs in his wake. The romance of Frank Loesser's melodies combined with the wit and brilliant simplicity of his lyrics ensures that this evening will leave you feeling "Warm All Over" long after the show is complete.

'LOESSER KNOWN' is musically directed by John Boswell.
