It's almost impossible to go a day without hearing a Johnny Mercer song. Tunes like "Moon River," "Blues In The Night," and That Old Black Magic" are woven into the fabric of American life. He wrote more than 1500 songs in a career that spanned nearly fifty years. His work appeared in over 90 films and he was nominated for eighteen Academy Awards, winning four. Mercer wrote six Broadway shows, and was himself a top radio personality and recording artist. He co-founded Capitol Records, and nurtured the talents of musical legends such as Peggy Lee, Frank Sinatra, and Nat King Cole.

In celebrating songwriter Johnny Mercers 100th birthday, COME RAIN OR COME SHINE musically applauds the writers Southern gumption, timeless appeal, Gatsby style, creative inspiration,Huckleberry Friend affability, and charming songs in a slick, yet comfortably impromptu cabaret revue. The COME RAIN OR COME SHINE cast includes Klea Blackhurst (Time Out New York Special Achievement Award: Everything The Traffic Will Allow), Jim Caruso (six-time MAC Award Winner & Liza's At The Palace), Christine Ebersole (Tony Awards: Grey Gardens & 42nd Street), Billy Stritch (Grammy: Does He Love You? and two Grammy nominations for Liza Minnelli's Gently cd) and award-winning jazz violinist Aaron Weinstein.

Come Rain Or Come Shine was filmed by New York City actor turned filmmaker, Michael Stever.
