Chicago Artists Chorale

During the summer of 2014, Chicago actors Tom Vendafreddo and Devin DeSantis were in a production at the Marriott Theatre in Lincolnshire, IL. Between shows one day, a conversation erupted about how much they missed singing in choir. After they shared some of the highlights from their past choral experiences, Tom posed a question, "Is there any reason why we shouldn't start a choir for people in the same boat as us?" And thus the Chicago Artists Chorale was born! The chorale is comprised of actors, directors, professors, stage managers, teachers, instrumentalists, drag queens, and so many other types of artists! For one night a week, this group of people comes together and volunteers their time to sing choral music.
