A concert performance of the new musical, The White City: Burnham's Dream, in Mies van der Rohe's Carr Memorial Chapel, being restored on the IIT campus. The White City, by June Finfer and Elizabeth Doyle, traces the amazing journey of Chicago and Daniel Burnham to win and build a great World's Fair in 1893 that inspired the City Beautiful and City Planning movements. Original music and a cast of eight will tell the story of personal challenges and public works.
