THEATER | "A Twist of Lemmon"

by

Whether you're fan of actor Chris Lemmon, or more familiar with the work of his father, Jack Lemmon, you'll learn about both of their histories in this production by Chris Lemmon. The lives of both stars are explored in "A Twist of Lemmon," presented at Downstairs Cabaret Theatre. Audiences can watch as the father and son pair, once separated, reconnect and learn more about each other.

Told entirely in the voice of Jack Lemmon, "A Twist of Lemmon" also pays tribute to dozens of stars from the classic age of Hollywood and is scored with some of Jack Lemmon's famous performances. The show also has an original piano score by Chris Lemmon. "A Twist of Lemmon" is based on Chris' biography of his father, published on Father's Day 2006. He continues his nationwide tour of his applauded new one man production.

The show plays Thursday, October 29, through Sunday, November 15, at Downstairs Cabaret Theater at Winton Place (3450 Winton Place). Ticket prices range from $36-$39. Each performance will be followed by a talkback with Lemmon. For reservations, call 325-4370, or check downstairscabaret.org for more information.
