For decades, renowned newspaper advice columnist Ann Landers responded to countless questions from lovelorn teens, confused couples, and a multitude of others in need of advice on matters small and momentous – like the proper way to hang toilet paper rolls. This one-woman show provides a compelling portrait of this folksy, funny, frank, and slightly eccentric writer and personality. Eppie Lederer was born in Sioux City,Iowa, and for several years was a happy Midwestern housewife. When her family moved to Chicago, she applied for a job to assist the woman writing the syndicated “Ann Landers” advice column for the Chicago Sun-Times. But the woman had just died and Eppie was hired to write the column … and she also inherited the Ann Landers pen-name. At the height of her popularity, Ann Landers was read by some 90 million people. Her daily dialog with America helped shape the social landscape for almost half a century.

The Oconto Falls Friends of the Arts are proud to present ANTHONY KEARNS, STAR OF THE IRISH TENORS on Sunday, September 28 at 6 PM in the Falls Area Performing Arts Center. The performance is the second in this year’s Fine Arts Series. Please note: The performance time has changed to 6 PM due to the Packers Bear game.

Anthony Kearns, considered Ireland’s Foremost Tenor, is recognized around the globe for over a decade of extraordinary collaborative work with the PBS super-group, The Irish Tenors. As a classically trained tenor, he has the incredible ability to flawlessly sing what audiences love to hear. Performing a concert repertoire which spans the spectrum brilliantly from Ireland to Broadway, from well-loved melodies to popular classics, and from light hearted comedy to the greatest tenor arias every written, Anthony does it all with class, style, assurance, and perfection. He is the consummate performer with universal appeal.

Anthony Kearns is a superb singer, a confident, compelling performer.
… The Nashville Scene

Anthony Kearns, Ireland’s foremost tenor,
is a great ambassador for Ireland
The Honorable Michael Collins, Ireland’s Ambassador to the United States

Voices like this don’t come along very often. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime voice.
