Our season subscriptions are back, and you won’t want to miss out on a thing!We start out with a ”Sizzling Summer of Siblings” and two back-to-back shows exploring that unique relationship—first between brothers, then among sisters—in two very different works – Sam Shepard’s True West followed by Canadian Daniel MacIvor’s Marion Bridge. The season continues with two special collaborations that are sure to be memorable! In the fall, we’ll visit Dublin in Conor McPherson’s The Seafarer with our friends at the Unicorn Theatre. We’ll end the season with a truly unique experience when we bring Theatre Workshop’s Oh What A Lovely War! to life with the help of UMKC’s Theatre Department and the National World War I Museum which will host the musical on their stage. |
