All of Us: 2025-2026 Season
Join us for the 2025-2026 WCPA Season—Celebrate and honor the interconnectedness of our diverse community to the world around us. Our WCPA singers and audiences are a beacon for love and light, balm for weary souls, and joyful agents of change—our world needs All Of Us:
All of Us are Comfort & Joy for the world – we care, love, and celebrate.
All of Us are Rooted & Radiant – we are on the earth with purpose.
All of Us are Singing For Our Lives – we protested for our rights, and again we must use our voices for change.
Our compassion, beauty, and power make the greatest impact when it is All Of Us.
Join Windy City Performing Arts as we open our season with Comfort & Joy, a celebration of togetherness in all its forms — from the families we are born into to the chosen families we build along the way. In the spirit of the holiday season, this concert blends songs of quiet reflection with music that lifts the spirit, creating space to pause, connect, and revel in the warmth of community. Whether through beloved holiday favorites or fresh new works, Comfort & Joy invites you to share in the beauty, belonging, and cheer that our music inspires.

In Rooted & Radiant, Windy City Performing Arts explores the deep connection between humanity and the natural world, celebrating the intersectional ways our stories, identities, and communities are intertwined with the earth that sustains us. This concert reflects on the resilience of our shared environment and queer communities past and present through music of luminous beauty, Rooted & Radiant reminds us that when we stand in our truth — and in harmony with the world around us — we shine for ourselves and for one another.

We close the season with Singing for Our Lives, an urgent and heartfelt call to use our voices for change. Inspired by the legacy of activism throughout history in queer and allied communities, this program honors those who have fought for justice and those continuing the work today. Featuring songs of protest from home and around the world, Windy City Performing Arts affirms that music is more than art! It is a force for connection, compassion, and social change.
