Ben M. Jerome Trio

September 30th
Jerome, a favorite composer in Chicago, offered a few of his old melodies and some new ones. He opens his act seated at a grand piano. Afterwards, a woman sings one of his latest songs, and a man then performs a "wop" number. Some of his favorites are then sing by a couple offstage, who then perform a romping child song.
The act is slightly awkward as the singers are not quite comfortable yet. Some of the selections should be changed.
