She's the Dancer, He's the Musician
For a performance that combines dance, music and film, check out lions will roar, swans will fly, angels will wrestle heaven, rains will break: gukurahundi, playing at the Museum of Contemporary Art.
Featuring Nora Chipaumire (the dancer) and Thomas Mapfumo (the musician) and his band The Blacks Unlimited, lions will roar tells the story of two artists who collaborate to "use their impassioned voices to speak about living as Africans in an increasingly borderless world."
The production is at 7:30pm on Thursday, Oct. 1 and Saturday, Oct. 3; the Sunday, Oct. 4 show is at 3pm. Tickets are $25 for MCA members ($10 for students) and can be purchased online or by calling the MCA box office, 312.397.4010.
