Flashpoint Academy Will Be Exclusive Education Partner of Video Games Live in Chicago on 11/15 - Special Closed Events Will Be at Flashpoint



Video Games Live, a complete celebration and multimedia concert experience featuring music from the most popular video games of all time, is coming to The Chicago Theatre (two blocks from Flashpoint Academy) on NOVEMBER 15TH.

Video Games Live is a multimedia concert experience featuring the best music and exclusive synchronized video clips from the most popular games from the beginning of video gaming to the present. Performed by top orchestras and choirs, the show combines exclusive video footage and music arrangements with synchronized lighting, solo performers, special FX, electronic percussionists and unique interactive segments.

Whether it's the power and passion of the more recent blockbusters or the excitement of remembering the sentimental classics you played growing up, it will truly be a special night to remember.

The show has a segment dedicated to the old retro arcade classics — but there is also modern music and older, more memorable pieces that no one has ever heard played live.

The show features audience participation with special interactive segments where people are randomly picked from the audience to come up and compete while the orchestra plays the music in perfect synchronization with the visuals on screen.
