THE (ALL NEW) ORIGINAL TRIBUTE TO THE BLUES BROTHERS
OPENING MILLER'S 2012 SEASON - TWO NIGHTS ONLY!
March 22 - 23 at 8:15PM
Join Jake and Elwood Blues as they kick off Miller's 2012 season in a spectacular way!
The show brings you all those amazing favorite moments and songs with a few new twists, a few new moves and some clean, freshly laundered suits. The boys are joined by the sassy Bluettes, three amazing ladies with voices to knock you clean off your perch.
All your favourite songs are here, of course! Everybody, Shake Ya Tail Feather, Sweet Home Chicago, Think, Respect, Gimme Some Loving, and loads, loads more!
So don the sunglasses, dig out your best pork pie hat, and buff up those dancing shows, because the Blues Brothers cordially request your presence for a night of the best music, the best moves and the best comedy you’re likely to see this side of Chicago. Just don’t tell the Police, OK?!
