Musical Madlibs

New York City-based company, Creative Stage Collective joins the internationally acclaimed NZTrio for this exciting collaboration at the Auckland Opera Studio. In Musical Madlibs! classical chamber music, played by the trio, provides inspiration as the audience helps fill in the blanks of a “build your own adventure story” (à la MadLibs). There will be hilarity and action galore, as Improv actors portray the resulting audience-created characters in a high energy, musical and theatrical storytelling extravaganza. This is a performance sure to delight audience members of all ages. (Recommended for ages 6 and up!)

Described as a “national treasure” and “New Zealand’s most indispensable ensemble” (William Dart, NZ Herald), NZTrio is renowned for its eclectic repertoire, outstanding talent and warm kiwi stage presence. Any preconceptions of classical music being stuffy or intimidating are smashed by edgy repertoire, venue ambience, and post-concert manaakitanga. Bringing together three incredibly accomplished artists: Amalia Hall (violin), Ashley Brown (cello) and Somi Kim (piano), every NZTrio performance powerfully reaffirms the importance and cathartic nature of a live musical experience in today’s digital world. Expect to be affected.
