The 2021 Twin Cities New Music Festival presents “Sideshow” by Steven Takasugi, under the direction of Perry So.

Based on the dark sideshows of Coney Islands amusement parks in the early part of the 20th century, “Sideshow” is a meditation on the virtuosity, freak shows, entertainment, spectacle, business, and the sacrifices one makes to survive in the world. A cycle of aphorisms by the Viennese satirist Karl Kraus runs as a subtext through the work.

Date & Time: Saturday, July 10, 2021 at 9 PM CT
