The All Night Strut We went to see the latest offering in our season ticket series at the Marriott Lincolnshire Theater – and like many times before went in not knowing what to expect, and came out smiling. “All Night Strut” is a revue – it’s one of those pastiche shows with a lot of songs, a lot of dancing, and no plot, story, or structure to get in the way.

Ney's going to prison, the first Congresscritter convicted in connection with the Abramoff scandal. No word on what kind of prison job he'll take once inside Club Fed, but I'm hoping he'll be working the prison grill line.
