This summer, we’re celebrating a decade of creativity and rhythm with Merrimans’ Playhouse—and you’re invited! Enjoy amazing live performances, special experiences, and fantastic food and drinks all season long.
Bring a blanket or lawn chair (limited seating will be available on the Terrace), relax under the sun, and let the music move you in this one-of-a-kind setting. Ivan’s Cafe will have tasty food and non-alcoholic beverages available for purchase. Oh Mamma’s will be selling scrumptious small plates perfect for snacking, and Perry Vine will be pouring delicious meads and wines for purchase by the glass or bottle.
This month, we’re welcoming the Harry Tonchev Trio to the Terrace. Tonchev is a Bulgarian-American jazz guitarist who is very active in Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison, and central Illinois. His high-energy trio focuses on improvisational music by exploring a mixture of originals and standards from the Great American Songbook and their conversational approach to improvised music keeps audiences engaged. The trio features Harry Tonchev on guitar, Clark Sommers on bass, and Todd Howell on drums.
Museum galleries will be open so you can explore the work of art paired with the performance.
Series curated by Stephen and Mary Merriman of Merrimans’ Playhouse.
