On May 4th, five people with varying degrees of connection to one another accepted an invitation to go to the Civic Opera House for a performance. They—Max Guy, Thomas Lin, Lily (pseudonym), Jenna Lyle, and Wilson Yerxa—had all seen advertisements for it (everywhere) but never an actual performance. In this panel presentation moderated by Arts Club artist fellow Qiuchen Wu, an ensemble of artists, scholars, and thinkers reflect on the experience.This event is co-presented with&nbsp;<a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://artsclubchicago.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=502da7c1672081e981f967563&amp;id=8e1db88213&amp;e=e3c33543d7" target="_blank">SHANGHAI SEMINARY</a>.Free and open to all.<a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://artsclubchicago.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=502da7c1672081e981f967563&amp;id=5146c01f9b&amp;e=e3c33543d7" target="_blank">In-Person</a><a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://artsclubchicago.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=502da7c1672081e981f967563&amp;id=ddda8d9205&amp;e=e3c33543d7" target="_blank">Virtual</a>

Following the success of her last album Fountain, Pramuk’s expansive new release, Hymnal, is her own book of transformational worship songs, drawing from folk, house, techno, gospel and her formal classical education to construct a symphonic universe. A passionate live performer, Pramuk prefers staging her shows in churches, cathedrals and purpose-built theaters, embracing the space as an integral part of the experience, while using delay, feedback, reverb and pitch-shifting and pedals to alter her voice. For this performance in Bond Chapel, Pramuk brings Hymnal to Chicago.&nbsp;<a style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://renaissancesociety.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=28258b64874e626df0979c0de&amp;id=7df26e2dd3&amp;e=375d06b725" target="_blank">Learn more.</a> Lyra Pramuk, Photo by Leonardo Scotti.

Friday's Holiday Spirits: A Collection of Victorian Yuletide Ghost Stories

An innovative choreographer, Moriah Evans creates performances for a wide variety of contexts, from museum spaces to the stage, while exploring the “knowledge our bodies hold” and the political undercurrents of movement. This winter, the New York-based artist spends two weeks at the Renaissance Society with a small ensemble of dancers. For this expanded edition of the&nbsp;Intermissions&nbsp;series, which features a longer time frame than usual,&nbsp;Evans explores&nbsp;the&nbsp;possibilities of dance in a more open and durational form&nbsp;through this&nbsp;new work, letting it take shape beyond the boundaries of a single&nbsp;event. Balancing a mix of private rehearsals and public presentations, Evans and the ensemble will offer different expressions of the project at different times.&nbsp;Curated by Karsten Lund.&nbsp;Launched in 2017,&nbsp;<a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://renaissancesociety.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=28258b64874e626df0979c0de&amp;id=77671601cf&amp;e=375d06b725" target="_blank">Intermissions</a>&nbsp;is an ongoing programming series devoted to performance and other inventive time-based works, staged in the Renaissance Society’s empty gallery in between exhibitions. This recurring platform features two artists every year, supporting a wide variety of live projects.Image: Moriah Evans,&nbsp;Remains Persist,&nbsp;2022, Performance Space New York, NY.
