CHICAGO – The late playwright August Wilson left a gift to the world in the form of his “American Century Cycle,” a series of plays each individually set in a decade of the 20th Century, focusing on the black experience. Chicago’s Goodman Theatre presents Wilson’s “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone,” now through May 19th, 2024 (click here).
Mozart's "LA CLEMENZA DI TITO"
A fresh take on a Mozart favorite, thanks to a trio of young stars hand picked by COT General Director Brian Dickie. Last seen in Chicago 20 years ago, the opera is a story of passion, revenge, and forgiveness—the perfect subjects for virtuoso arias, as Mozart well knew. Hear Curtis-trained tenor Dominic Armstrong star as Emperor Tito, and fellow Curtis grad and Illinois native Amanda Majeski sing the role of the cunning Vitellia. Croatian mezzo-soprano Renata Pokupic, who has taken the London and Paris music worlds by storm in recent years, will perform as Sesto and sing the famous “Parto, parto” aria. See these brilliant young performers shine even brighter when led by two of the world’s most revered Mozart interpreters—conductor Jane Glover and director Diane Paulus.
Sung in Italian with English Supertitles.
