Classical Music Chicago spreads the beauty of music in multiple series, including the one-day fete of the musician within us all. Begun in summer 2011, Make Music Chicago is a citywide DIY music festival that invites and draws together people throughout the community in a celebration of music making, no holds barred. Age, ability, professional or amateur, preferred musical style or genre are not of import - all that matters is a love for music and musicmaking.

This warm-hearted theatrical experience is presented as a show-within-a-show when the delightfully looney Victorian theatre company at the Music Hall Royale 'puts on' its exuberant production of an unfinished Dickens mystery.
