Symphony on the Edge 1
Performances:
| October 24, 2008 | 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM | Knitting Factory |  |
Event Details
It's not often that Spokane makes New York City take notice, but this exciting series is one of those moments! Now in its fourth year, Symphony on the Edge rocks the Knitting Factory (formerly the Big Easy) once again! With a t-shirt on your back, a drink in one hand and a Symphony program in the other, get ready to experience the invigorating collision of progressive symphonic music, special lighting effects, and big-screen close-ups. To audiences of all ages, expect a fresh, unique, and daring performance! These two concerts are certain to live up to their regional and national acclaim.
Same Location - New Name
The Big Easy was sold to the Knitting Factory, owners of popular night clubs in New York and Los Angeles. Everything else will be the same when you come to this cutting edge concert.
