CINDERELLA BLACKBIRD
A conversation with Lin Brehmer that started over 20 years ago continues today in the form of “Cinderella Blackbird,” an unfolding series of collages, poetry, songs and stories.
Join Tony Fitzpatrick and Jon Langford as they bring “Cinderella Blackbird” to the stage for a unique performance in memory of Lin Brehmer, a man who shared their love of music, literature and art; a man with the heart of a playwright and the soul of a poet; a carefree spirit whose deep appreciation for wordplay brought transcendence to the airwaves of Chicago; a man who reminded us that it’s great to be alive.
Tony Fitzpatrick is a visual artist, film actor and poet.
Jon Langford is a year-zero punk rocker, songwriter, visual artist and retired DJ.
Musical accompaniment and arrangements by multi-instrumentalist John Rice.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated, in Lin's name, to Intonation. Through teaching the art of music making, Intonation holds space for youth to find their sound and discover new depths of their talent and potential. From the truly student-led curriculum to embracing all forms of music—Intonation is remixing youth development while making music accessible, relevant, and approachable for youth on the South Side.
