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

SUMMARY:"Molly Joyce: Perspective" Exhibition Opening at Curb Appeal Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Curb Appeal Gallery is pleased to announce their inaugural exhibition and the Chicago debut of Molly Joyce’s Perspective. Begun in 2019\, Perspective is a sound and video work that captures perspectives of the disability experience.

Created with disability aesthetics and accommodations in mind\, Perspective features open-captioned videos\, lending a sense of visual primacy to the stories of the disabled participants and their valuable perspectives. In addition to screening Perspective\, Curb Appeal is delighted to host a brief conversation between Joyce and one of the project interviewees\, Chicago artist Andy Slater (from 7:00-7:30pm). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility: Curb Appeal is wheelchair accessible.
