My Buddy's

Join Ghostlight Ensemble for the final installment of 3 Stages of Love: Extraordinary Love in June.
The third installment of the loosely thematic cabaret series moves to My Buddy’s on North Clark Street at Montrose Avenue.
Conceived by Ghostlight Ensemble Member Khnemu Menu-Ra, <a href="https://www.ghostlightensemble.com/3-stages-of-love" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">3 Stages of Love </a>also includes performers <a href="https://www.ghostlightensemble.com/3-stages-of-love-bios" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Dani Brady and Jean E. Mueller-Burr</a>.
This semi-autobiographical work features a blend of Shakespeare and song – along with original pieces. The full series ran over the course of our 9th season, but there is no need to attend all three, each piece stands alone as a complete work, but a richer story unfolds if you see the entire cycle.
Menu-Ra describes Extraordinary Love as a tale that remembers the past, embraces the present and hopes the future will continue to be anything but ordinary.
Even if you missed Part 1 &amp; 2, you'll have no trouble following Part 3. Dinner and drinks will be available for purchase. 3 Stages of Loves promises to be a true cabaret for those daring enough to join.
