The Hipmas Carol

The Hipmas Carol

Apollo Theater
2540 N. Lincoln Ave. Chicago

A unique and wholly original reinterpretation of the Dickens classic performed by Tyler Bohne and Patrick Zielinski and illustrated musically by Chicago musician Robert Rial of the band "Bakelite 78." It is presented in a style that manages to remain warm and wry while never losing its distinctly urban edge - due in large part to the charm and dexterity of the versatile performers who deftly utilize age-old theatrical storytelling techniques to deliver a barrage of rhyming couplets over a rich and ever present live blues score as they effortlessly invoke every character and nuance to astonishing effect.
