WOYZECK with Chicago Fringe Opera

Michelle makes her debut with Chicago Fringe Opera in their take (on Kathleen Brennan & Tom Waits’s take) on this classic play:

Desperate for money to support his fledgling family, a working-class man submits to medical experimentation for cash. As the experiments drive him to the edge, Georg Büchner’s eponymous play asks “Is there really any difference between man and beast?” This Chicago premiere of Tom Waits’ alt-chamber opera features a new orchestration by acclaimed jazz pianist Carl Kennedy.
