CHICAGO--Opening May 29, Jimmy All the Hits is Needles Theatre Company premiere that takes a cross-cultural look at the business of music. Created by Chicago director Dan Nelson and Irish writer Stephen Walsh, Jimmy focuses on a Dublin musician who moves to Chicago with a green card and no immediate plans. He finds a roommate, then lands a record contract that leads to a hit single and all the fame an Irishman in America can handle. To make him "marketable," James will be promoted to the skies--whether he likes it or not. For information call 773-348-6633. -- By Lawrence Bommer
