SUMMARY:Jack Tucker Off Broadway - "The One Man Theatric Comedy Show"
DESCRIPTION:Broadway comes to The Bend!\n“Zach Zucker is a pathologically talented comic who expertly combines his razor-sharp timing with clowning physicality…. Jack Tucker is a work of genius”\n– Bruce Dessau\, Beyond the Joke\nJack Tucker\, created by award-winning performer and producer Zach Zucker\, is a comedic character fighting to save his marriage\, regain his son’s respect\, and do whatever it takes to hit the big time. Often shoeless and inexplicably soaking wet\, Tucker is a blend of inspiration from iconic performers like Andy Kaufman and Robin Williams\, and the absurdist “anti-comedy” of Tim Heidecker and Sacha Baron Cohen\, with whom Zucker shares training from the École Philippe Gaulier clown school in France. This character is a modern twist on timeless physical comedy and vaudevillian performances\, positioning Zucker as a key figure in the new generation of must-see entertainers.

SUMMARY:Michelle LL
DESCRIPTION:Kewaskum Native Michelle LL makes her debut on The Bend’s historic stage \n“Inspiring and talented. Highly recommend…”. -D.T.\n“You can feel it in your soul when she plays.” -anonymous fan\nMichelle LL started signing with her grandfather’s band (Bill Thull Orchestra) from Kewaskum\, WI at age 10\, which led to the start of The Goodtime Dutchmen with her parents and siblings. Even before that\, her family loved to dance and attended many polka dances throughout Wisconsin which ignited her love for music. As a young kid interested in learning an instrument\, her dad’s recommendation brought her to the saxophone in 6th grade and eventually many other instruments along the way. Michelle attended Concordia University in Mequon\, WI\, originally choosing a path of physical therapy as her intended career (which in her mind\, was 2nd best to music). She was led to believe that music was supposed to be a hobby\, until she finally made the choice to pursue music as a career. At age 19\, she exchanged marriage vows with Danny Jerabek\, and moved to Slinger\, WI. It wasn’t long before the newlyweds moved to Oshkosh\, WI\, where they settled into building a life together full of music and family\, as Michelle gave birth to their first daughter at the age of 21. \nDanny & Michelle started writing songs and assembled a band to perform\, mostly on the weekends. They originally started a polka band\, which led to the origination of the band\, Copper Box\, one of WI’s premier bands and also included many short tours throughout the US. Afterall\, — a van\, a band and a baby\, proved to be a lot of luggage and Michelle soon gave birth to their 2nd daughter. There are some funny tales of Michelle playing a gig 36 hours after giving birth\, which describes her work ethic and passion\, regardless of the doctor’s recommendations. With the help of their family and several babysitters\, Danny & Michelle worked hard to make ends meet because of their love for music and that’s just how they rolled. They held other jobs until they couldn’t physically handle doing both and decided to focus on the band more because it felt like the right move and earned them several nominations and awards\, friends\, fans and fun memories. \nTwelve years later\, Michelle gave birth to their only son. Michelle was recognized for several awards including “Reed Player of the Year\,” and “Side Person of the Year (WI Polka Hall of Fame)\,” as well as collective awards for Copper Box like “Artist of the Year\,” “Americana Artist of the Year\,” “Folk Rock Artist of the Year\,” etc. by Wisconsin Music Industry. In the last 20 years with Copper Box \, they have has opened for big names like The Doobie Brothers\, Huey Lewis & The News\, Little Big Town\, etc.). They have recorded several singles and 12 albums with the band\, Copper Box\, and a few songs under the name “Michelle LL\,” which showcases her voice and songs written by her and her husband\, Danny\, that don’t always have a place in Copper Box. Added into the mix are cover songs by some of her favorite artists\, like Van Morrison\, Bonnie Raitt\, Eva Cassidy\, etc. Michelle was also featured on the cover of WI Women’s Magazine. She is a working musician\, business coach and a keynote speaker on the topics of personal development and healing….and you can feel it in her music —it’s authentic\, fun\, positive and rooted in passion. \nDoors open at 6:30 PM to give you time to find your seats\, visit our historic lobby\, concession stand and fully stocked bar! Show begins at approximately 7:30 PM \nDisclaimer: Dancing is permitted during all shows at The Bend Theater.

SUMMARY:Twitty & Lynn: A Salute to Conway & Loretta 2025
DESCRIPTION:Twitty & Lynn return to The Bend with a heartfelt tribute to their grandparents: \nConway Twitty & Loretta Lynn\nThere’s a moment right at the very beginning of any Twitty & Lynn show that affords country music fans the chance to look back in time. Just after the band has played the signature intro to “Louisiana Woman\, Mississippi Man\,” Tre Twitty and Tayla Lynn shoot each other a glance that summons the electrifying chemistry of their grandparents: Tre is the grandson of Conway Twitty\, Tayla is the granddaughter of Loretta Lynn. \nTwitty & Lynn — and their internationally popular show “A Salute to Conway & Loretta” — aren’t impersonators. Tre doesn’t groom Seventies sideburns and perm his hair; Tayla doesn’t mimic her grandmother’s mannerisms. Rather\, they are onstage celebrating country music\, the lost art of duet singing\, and the two beloved icons they refer to as “Poppy” and “Memaw.” \nDisclaimer: Dancing is permitted during all shows at The Bend Theater.

SUMMARY:Rêve Bleu Charity Soirée
DESCRIPTION:Rêve Bleu Charity Soirée\n3rd Annual Blue Lotus Center Benefit Concert\nJoin us for a night of live music\, fun\, and fellowship as we listen to the pizzazz and jazzy sounds of multi-faceted songstress Robin Pluer and soulful singer\, Freddy Bliffert. \nRobin is an award-winning artist who has been a perennial in the Wisconsin Music Industry for the past 20+ years. She’s performed and composed music with John Sieger and the R& B Cadets\, Paul Cebar and the Milwaukeeans\, and Peter Buffet. Wherever she performs\, Robin Pluer captivates her audiences with the sounds of R & B and flirtatious melodies of French oldies that will strike your inner soul. \nSoulful sounds? When Fred Bliffert heard his first lullaby\, he instinctively knew it wasn’t music if it didn’t have a soul. Many of Fred’s early music influences had gospel roots – Sam Cooke\, Curtis Mayfield\, Aretha Franklin\, Otis Redding\, and Marvin Gaye. Yet\, he always rocks the room like a heavy metal idol\, drops R&B that would get James Brown’s attention\, and croons a ballad that makes the audience forget Frank Sinatra.  His three great gifts are a connection to the music\, a voice that glorifies that connection\, and his overwhelming sense of joy. \nThe duo will be accompanied by the incredible Chris Hanson Band. Chris and his bandmates have been on the Milwaukee music scene for years\, with roots in the Milwaukee Symphony\, Bluegrass\, Rock\, and Jazz. \nThis combination of musical talent will surely get music lovers dancing in their seats for a great cause! \nDisclaimer: Dancing is permitted during all shows at The Bend Theater.

Fourteen of Dane County’s best jazz and rock musicians have banded together around their passion for Steely Dan music\, playing in the same configuration as the Steely Dan touring band including a four piece horn section and three background singers. Shows consist of hits and deep cuts and sometimes even complete albums and are sure to have you out of your seats singing along. \nDoors open at 6:30 PM to give you time to find your seats\, visit our historic lobby\, concession stand and fully stocked bar! Show begins at approximately 7:30 PM \nDisclaimer: Dancing is permitted during all shows at The Bend Theater. By attending\, you acknowledge that audience members may stand\, move\, and dance during performances. Enjoy the music and embrace the energy!

SUMMARY:In the Garden with The Gutekunst Flute Choir
DESCRIPTION:The Gutekunst Flute Choir presents “In the Garden”\n\nin honor of Roots & Branches Annual Spring Plant Sale\nPresented by The Bend Theater in partnership with The Gutekunst Flute Choir \nFree Event to the Community \n“In 2002\, a small group of flute players began playing music together. That group evolved into a flute choir based in Milwaukee\, Wisconsin. Adding flutists over time to reach their present size of 15 members\, this local organization performs at public and private venues throughout southeastern Wisconsin. The group adopted its current name after Ms. Gutekunst\, a founder\,  sadly passed away in 2010. Members feel her name\, which means “Good Art” in German\, is a fitting tribute to the talented musician and friend they lost. The group loves to make beautiful music in her memory.” \nFor more information about The Gutekunst Flute Choir\, visit gutekunstflute.com
