City of Bloomington issued the following announcement on Oct. 15
The Bloomington Center for the Performing Arts (BCPA) is set to host a few fun and exciting events on its mainstage this October.
GRIMMZ FAIRY TALES
The next BCPA mainstage production will be GRIMMZ Fairy Tales on Saturday, October 16th at 8:00 PM. This all-ages show is a hip hop remix of familiar classics. The concept has Jay and Will Grimmz, the hip-hop fable story dance-pop sensation, coming back home to the city where they grew up to give a concert. The brothers put a modern spin on valuable life lessons in Snow White and the Seven Shawties, Down with Rapunzel, Hanzel & Gretel: Lost in the Streets, and their brand new release Cinderella Remix.
ARTGASM
The GRIMMZ Fairy Tales performance takes place after the ArtGasm Fundraiser on Saturday, October 16th from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM in the BCPA Ballroom. Tickets to ArtGasm are still available at FriendsofTheBCPA.org. A ticket to the ArtGasm includes admission to the GRIMMZ Fairy Tales performance.
m-pact
Imagine the smooth soul of Sam Smith, the percussive power of Stomp, the funk and groove of Bruno Mars, the sophisticated harmonies of Take 6, and the brass bite of the Michael Bublé Big Band…All created by the human voice alone! m-pact will perform on Friday, October 22 at 7:30 PM. M-pact has been hailed as "one of the best pop-jazz vocal groups in the world" by the San Francisco Chronicle, m-pact is respected worldwide as a cutting-edge trailblazer in the realm of vocal music.
