Links Hall presents THAW 2021: ABUNDANCE, our annual fundraiser and celebration of the performing arts community, on Monday, February 8, 2021. In previous iterations the singular event has drawn hundreds of live arts supporters and makers to revel in one of Chicago’s largest cross-disciplinary art parties. THAW 2021 captures that surprising, electrifying spirit through dance, music, puppetry, installation, and more. With both pre-recorded and live performances from Links Hall and off-site locations, join us in celebrating Chicago’s imagination, joy, generosity, and our collective ABUNDANCE.
THAW Abundance is produced by a multi-disciplinary creative team, led by Co-Directors Erin Kilmurray and Giau Truong. The event will be Emceed by Alex Grelle and Jyldo, with Noah Ginex Puppet Company joining as Guest Host. Eleanor Kahn will design and build THAW installations that are woven into the virtual event. The full creative team also includes Giau Truong (Technical Direction and Cinematography), Jacob Snodgrass (Lighting Design), Paul Scudder and Vin Reed (Production Associates), and Che Arthur (Audio Engineer).
