A HISTORIC INAUGURATION
After a series of initial collaboration in the past with Asian artists and staging a successful sold-out showing in the prestigious Kennedy Center’s Eisenhower Theater, MAFFAA had an epiphany that opened its eyes in setting their sights to a paradigm shift. And in so doing, we’ve reached out to the original producers of KGB Productions, who actually envisioned a successful World Premiere showing of Noli Me Tangere in Chicago, IL that was raved by opera critics and opera enthusiasts alike. Finding a kindred spirit who are like-minded but shows an entirely different approach in producing quality musical programming, MAFFAA made the initiative to join forces to become the vital resource that will encourage KGB Productions to continue the historic work they’ve begun to reach out to mainstream America. |
