Scenes From the Pandemic (WORLD PREMIERE)
Each of us has witnessed profound global change over the past two years. The Surabhi Ensemble’s latest work with special guest artists Juan Díes and Lorena Iniguez “Scenes From the Pandemic” is about how artists have interpreted the events of the day and created art shaped by those events. The ensemble has continued to press forward with virtual performances and workshops, live touring, and new work focusing on pandemic life, social justice, and global conflict. Through storytelling vignettes, the group debuts this original work through music, dance, poetry and media from perspectives of the ensemble members and guest artists.
Sponsored by Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events and private donors.
