Awesomeness To Ensue

Fabuloso New York jazz chanteuse Darby Dizard is coming to Stratford to perform a September 12 benefit concert for the Perry House Foundation. Her newest CD, Down for You, has been described as "lovely, voluptuous, animated, talented, sonorous, certainly sexy, & compelling" (The Musicians' Ombudsman). 

The Night on the Town event kicks off with a 7 p.m. Champagne cocktail party on Main Street in front of the Stratford Theatre. The concert itself begins at 8 p.m., followed by coffees and desserts at the Perry House. All this for just $50, and because the Perry House Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit, the ticket price is tax-deductible ("as allowed by law").

Tickets are for sale at the Shell Station Restaurant and Clough's Hardware, or call 377-3779 or 378-2254.

Don't delay — buy your tickets today!
