Performance: Valentine’s Day with Rapt In Plastic
@ International Museum of Surgical Science
1524 N Lake Shore Dr, Chicago, IL 60610
Opening Friday, February 14th, from 7PM - 9PM
Step into an alternate reality this Valentine’s Day, February 14th, as Rapt in Plastic brings their hauntingly beautiful dream-pop to the Hall of Immortals at the International Museum of Surgical Science in Chicago. Beneath the unblinking gazes of medicine’s luminaries—Vesalius, Curie, Nightingale—immerse yourself in an evening where art and science collide.
Like the warped reflections of a vintage medical diagram, the ethereal tones of Rapt in Plastic will echo through the gilded halls, weaving Angelo Badalamenti-inspired melodies with whispers of mid-century jazz and the longing heartbeat of deep-sea mysteries. A place where anatomy becomes art and a sunny melody hides something much darker, this event promises to linger in your mind like a half-remembered dream.
Join us for a night where every note resonates with the pulse of life and the shadow of its fragility. Hidden meanings, mysterious textures, and the timeless echoes of the Hall of Immortals await.
About the Band:
Playing ethereal dream-pop that evokes mystery and longing, Rapt in Plastic takes inspiration from David Lynch, where a sunny day gives lie to deeper, hidden meaning and emotion. Musically paying homage to Angelo Badalamenti, mid-century pop, and jazz with the beating heart of a whale, Rapt in Plastic’s unique instrumentation of drums, acoustic bass, saxophone, synth, vibraphone, and female vocals will appeal to those with wide listening tastes.
7:00pm – 9:00pm
