From the early folk masterpieces he made in the ’60s to his later futuristic cabaret (not to mention his novels, which have been more than well-received), Cohen remains arguably our most literary songwriter. And his mystique has only grown in the wake of Leonard Cohen: I’m Your Man, a 2005 documentary that worked to survey Cohen’s life and work anew.Akoo Theatre At Rosemont 5400 N River Rd, Chicago, IL
