The crime of the century. In song.

This fall, in a Chicago premiere, Chicago Fringe Opera (CFO), in collaboration with /kor/ productions, presents “HindSight”, an opera about the Leopold and Loeb murder that happened in Chicago. In the centennial year of the infamous “crime of the century”, this dark and terrifying work looks at what white supremacy, when unchecked, is capable of.

This riveting one-act work is by composer Felix Jarrar and librettist Bea Goodwin. (Goodwin’s “Fizz & Ginger” thrilled audiences at Chicago Fringe Opera last season.) A tenor and a baritone play Leopold and Loeb, along with an actor representing the boy murdered by the pair. A clarinetist and pianist deliver a score by Jarrar that is both expansive and descriptive.

Join us this November 1st (7:30 PM), 2nd (2:30 PM), 8th (7:30 PM), and 9th (2:30 PM) for “Hindsight”!

This production contains violent imagery involving children, which may be distressing for some viewers.
