”Brian portrays Hemingway On Stage with such brilliant form as to rival Hal Holbrook's Mark Twain," says Lorian Hemingway.

The play begins at 7 p.m. at the Hemingway Museum, 200 N. Oak Park Avenue, Oak Park, IL. The performance in the upstairs auditorium will be followed by Cuban music, food and drink in the lobby and self-guided tours of the Museum. Enjoy the warmth of the island amid the cold Chicago winter.
