We’ll come together and build community while crowdsourcing our favorite spaces to rehearse\, take class and perform in the Chicago area. \nWhen: Sunday\, February 5\, 2023\, 1-3pm Central \nWhere: This is a hybrid event. The in-person portion will take place at the Experimental Station (6100 S Blackstone Ave\, Chicago\, IL 60637). The online portion will take place via Zoom\, with the zoom link sent out to all registrants in advance of the event. We are still experimenting with our hybrid setup and appreciate your patience and collaborative spirit in working out the kinks! \nWho: Open to Chicago-area dance artists who self-identify as Deaf/deaf/hard of hearing\, sick\, mad\, neurodivergent\, disabled or living with a disability\, and/or who have lived experience with disability or impairment.

SUMMARY:the ripple\, the wave that carried me home
DESCRIPTION:A family responds to injustice and a daughter reckons with her political inheritance in this new play by “a poet\, a playwright to pay attention to” (Variety). \nJanice’s parents are prominent activists fighting for the integration of public swimming pools in 1960s Kansas. As injustice penetrates the warm bubble of her childhood\, Janice grows apart from her family and starts a new life far away. When she receives a call asking her to speak at a ceremony honoring her father\, she must decide whether she’s ready to reckon with her political inheritance—and a past she has tried to forget. \nA Co-Production with Berkeley Repertory Theatre \nhttps://www.goodmantheatre.org/ripple

SUMMARY:The Factotum - Audio Description & American Sign Language
DESCRIPTION:A new work inspired by Rossini’s The Barber of Seville that has grown into an original piece all its own\, commissioned by Lyric. Updating the action to a Black barbershop on Chicago’s South Side\, the creators have made an irresistibly upbeat work that celebrates the strength of community. The Factotum blends diverse musical styles with boundless imagination to create a soul opera\, moving from gospel and funk to rap\, hip-hop\, classic barbershop quartet\, and R&B. Those styles connect brilliantly with classical singing in a very human comedy that redefines everything that opera can be. \nThis event includes ASL interpretation and audio description. \nhttps://www.lyricopera.org/shows/upcoming/2022-23/the-factotum/ \n
