Can you imagine a world without Over the Rainbow? Would we go Crazy without Patsy Cline’s iconic hit? It maybe hard to believe, but both of these songs barely avoided oblivion before making musical history.

Many of our musical treasures – from movies, musical theatre, pop and jazz – would have remained undiscovered if it weren’t for the stars aligning just right. Join Hilary Feldman, along with Chicago’s legendary musical director, Beckie Menzie, for some of your favorite songs… that almost weren’t. Music fans will also get to hear the juicy backstories behind these beloved tunes. There will be plenty of surprises.

Praised as a "tour de force of cabaret, jazz, and opera" by the Chicago Tribune and "a lovely vocalist... the right balance of musicality, story, and heart" by New York Cabaret Scenes Magazine, Feldman has received critical acclaim for her solo cabaret shows at venues throughout Chicagoland, as well as New York, Los Angeles, and London, England.
