Adrian Dunn and Hoperaworld present “Hopera: A Fallen Hero,” a not-to-be-missed hip hop opera, Nov. 12-15, at the DuSable Museum of African American History, located at 740 E. 56th Pl.

Composer Adrian Dunn strives to make opera more relevant for contemporary, broader audiences with this full-length hip hop opera production. “A Fallen Hero” integrates the eclectic arrangement of classical operatic vocalists, hip hop (spoken word and rap), orchestral instruments, dancers, a DJ and live music featuring both orchestral and band instrumentation.

A twist on the Shakespearean tragedy Othello, the universal story follows the life of fictional Obadiah King, a young African American and his internal quest to find himself as he is confronted with family struggles, loss, senseless acts of violence and racial issues.

“A Fallen Hero” runs Nov. 12 – 15. The performance schedule is Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Nov .15 at 4 p.m. Ticket prices range from $20 (groups, seniors and students) to $25 (general admission). To purchase tickets, call the DuSable Museum of African American History Box Office at (773) 947-0600 x236 or visitwww.dusablemuseum.org.
