Anita Kallen and Catherine Thomson follow up on their earlier musical celebration of the 100th anniversary of women’s voting rights with a brand new show saluting the gutsy gals who boldly defied society’s conventions - going where no woman had gone before - and achieved groundbreaking female “Firsts.” Music Director Beckie Menzie will be at the piano playing songs by Harold Arlen, Stephen Schwartz, Dolly Parton, Tom Lehrer, Kander &amp; Ebb, and Sara Bareilles, among others. Join us for a great night of songs and stories woven together in a beautiful tapestry of tantalizing tales of courage, grace, and an unwavering determination to make lemonade from life&#39;s lemons!
