WHAT'S NEXT: Ginger Krebs Performance Project & Chicago Fringe Opera

Pivot Arts Festival closes with two additional showings of What's Next from our Performing Arts Incubator Program at Loyola University: Ginger Krebs Performance Project and Chicago Fringe Opera. The Incubator Program provides artists with the necessary time and space to develop work that blurs the boundaries between music, dance, theater, and other arts.

Chicago Fringe Opera presents The Rossini Project

Chicago Fringe Opera, called the city's alt-opera company by the Chicago Tribune, is dedicated to producing artistically excellent and innovative productions of operatic works written in English that stimulate, engage, and empower a diverse community of artists and audiences alike. CFO is developing a new show, The Rossini Project, adapting the music and story of Gioachino Rossinis classic opera The Barber of Seville and transforming it into a hip hop dance party. The project features live opera singers, MCs, DJs, and breakdancers.
