We’re settling in to a short break and then will dash back into rehearsals and preparations for our February 1 All About Love concert. We understand that some people like giving and receiving tickets as a holiday gift idea, hint hint.

Mark your calendar for our next concert “All About Love” — a celebration and examination of all kinds of love, featuring love songs, breakup songs, friendship songs, and lesbian songs. You’ll experience the many flavors of love: romantic, platonic, familial, self, unrequited, and others.

We will be performing at a new location with our 15 new members: VanderCook College of Music, Great Hall. VanderCook is in the Bronzeville/IIT neighborhood, 3125 S. Federal St. Chicago. More details to come. Tickets available now!
