“I’m thrilled to be bringing my Sondheim show to my hometown at long last,” said Callaway. “I’ve performed To Steve With Love in New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, the Kennedy Center in DC,
London, Ireland, and Madrid—but somehow, never in Chicago. My 2025 New Year’s resolution was to make it happen, and now, to do my show at the gorgeous Studebaker Theater is a dream come true!”
