Teetering on the tightrope between humor and pathos, Wendy Parman takes us on a journey of shapeshifting through life, in story and song. With the incomparable Beckie Menzie on piano, she traces her path, from actor/chameleon to Brechtian chanteuse, to rockabilly roots siren-adapting, evolving…forever in search of a place to land.<br />The evening will feature mostly original songs, from a variety of projects over the years. Kurt Weill and genre mashing not optional.<br /><br />&quot;Wendy Parman exudes the wisdom and experience of a classic chanteuse, while somehow embodying the delight and joie de vivre of an ingenue. She&#39;s a complex and very winning performer.&quot; Robert Rodi, NewCity<br /><br />What people are saying:<br /><br />&quot;... a very entertaining and engaging evening.. the range of songs is very impressive.&quot;<br /><br />&quot;Wendy Parman is a True Chicago Treasure.&quot;<br /><br />&quot;Beautiful show, Wendy and Beckie sounded fabulous together!&quot;<br /><br />&quot;I really enjoyed the humor&quot;<br /><br />&quot;A legit poet...impressive and delightful&quot;<br /><br />Cover charge $20 Plus a 2 Drink Minimum<br /><br />21+<br /><br />https://www.wendyparmanvoice.com/<br /><br />Photo credits:<br /><br />Renta Mueller<br /><br />Iwona Beidermann<br /><br />Poster by Boyle Wong
