Rizo-lve to see this show

Born and raised in Newport, Rizo, aka: Amelia Zirin-Brown, is now an international sensation. Tickets are going fast for your chance to see Rizo’s “Prizmatism” at the Newport Performing Arts Center on Friday, May 26 and Saturday, May 27.

The New York Times once referred to Rizo as “Sensational… a fierce but kindhearted fusion of comedy, burlesque, performance art and rock ‘n’ roll.”

Rizo is a provocateur with an electric wit and has been called a “diva par excellence” by The Guardian. In the studio, she has collaborated with Moby and Reggie Watts and was featured on Yo-Yo Ma’s Grammy Award winning album, “Songs of Joy & Peace.”  Using the portal of glamor, seduction and powerhouse vocals, Rizo takes the audience on a wild and glittery journey of insightful reflections from personal to universal.

The May 26 and 27 shows will begin at 7:30 pm at the Newport Performing Arts Center, located at 777 W Olive Street. For more information and tickets, go to rizo.love / coastarts.org or call 541-265-ARTS.
