Opera is popping up everywhere!
In celebration of National Opera Week in Chicago (October
28-November 6), Chicago Opera Theatre is hosting several “pop-up” operas
throughout the city, including at the Chicago French Market, Macy’s on State
Street, the Art Institute of Chicago and at CTA stations. A “pop-up” is the
opera’s version of a flash mob: free, short performances of opera classics in a
public location.
Today, November 2, The Chicago French Market is the site of
the pop-up opera at 12:30. Stop by for a mid-day treat of great food and great
opera!

Future performances are a well-kept secret, so make sure to
follow @ChicagoOpera on Twitter for information about up-coming pop-ups. If you
are lucky enough to see a performance, make sure to include #popupopera in your
tweet to be entered in a contest for the Chicago Opera Theatre!
