At the McAninch Arts Center — Ralph’s World. Disney artist and Chicago rocker Ralph Covert has created a musical world where little guys and gals can rock, sing songs and dance with their big people friends.

At the McAninch Arts Center — New Philharmonic/DuPage Opera Theatre presents Otello. Stage direction by Peter Amster. In Italian with English supertitles. Verdi’s Otello is often cited as the greatest Italian opera of the 19th century.

But Lago’s envious machinations twist Otello into jealous rage and ultimately murder. The intrigue of this tragedy is revealed and intensified through Boito’s poetic libretto beautifully integrated by Verdi music and brought to life through the collaboration of Maestro Muspratt and Peter Amster.
