OUR HISTORY
Debuting in 2014 as Chicago Theatre-Opera and transmuting into Transgressive Theatre-Opera in 2015, TT-O has received critical and audience acclaim performing contemporary opera, re-imagined standards of the repertoire, operetta, and original, themed, narrated concerts.
 
Trangressive Theatre-Opera has offered this repertoire:
 
The Telephone
Hello Out There
The Boor
A Few Words About Chekov
The Seduction of a Lady
The Maligned Mezzo

The Consul

 
In 43 performances, TT-O entertained over 670 audience members in 5 different venues in Evanston, on Chicago’s Northside, and in Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood. TT-O has awarded 163 singer/actor contracts, 16 instrumentalist contracts, and 7 production staff contracts. (Figures through September 2019)
 
TT-O has given the Midwest premiere of Beeson’s Hello Out There, the Chicago premiere of Wargo’s Seduction Of A Lady, and perhaps the US premiere of Sullivan’s A Masque at Kenilworth in its entirety, while presenting the first staging of the cantata. 
 
The theme concerts The Maligned Mezzo, The Lieder, Chanson, and Hungarian Songs of Franz Lehar, The Best Of The Worst: After the Carpet Quarrel, and Letters of Love and Subterfuge were singular events produced by TT-O, and given in venues across the greater-Chicago area.
