Des Plaines Theatre 1476 Miner St, Des Plaines, United States

Loretta Lynn. The Most Awarded Lady in Country Music History with more than 60 years of recording and touring is celebrated royally in this special production that is a collaboration of Emily Portman, who formed a close friendship with the legendary singer-songwriter over the past 2 decades, and original members of The Coalminers Band (Loretta’s long time backup group). Together, and with the approval of the Loretta Lynn Family, they present an intimate evening of songs and stories about this groundbreaking performer whose body of work defined a genre and whose songs have inspired a new generation of musicians. You’ll learn why fans fell in love with Loretta’s instantly recognizable voice and distinctive body of work, with “shoot from the hip” songs that explore subjects like female empowerment, blue collar pride, sex, divorce, alcohol, and war. It’s a show filled with fond reminiscences of Loretta’s amazing life plus authentically recreated performances of her greatest hits by the people who knew her best.
