For 28 years, the only jazz-opera telling of the Christmas story, the "Jazz Nativity" has been able to go on with audience members' support. This year's installment is set for two performances, one in English and one in Spanish at Symphony Space in New York on Thursday, Dec 19th and Friday, Dec 20th, 2013.
The experience is about joy, jazz, and a holiday experience that crosses religious, social, and cultural boundaries. But the production is about costumes, lights, rentals, and in a word: money.This year is extra special and extra challenging because the show shares a vision for producing not only the "classic" Jazz Nativity, but also the Spanish version.
Check out the just-launched Kickstarter campaign, with rewards. A JAZZ NATIVITY 2013 - IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH.
