JOURNEY OF A LIFETIME
Join Catherine Karnow for an evening of stories of a life spent largely on assignment for National Geographic Traveler magazine.

In recent years, you may have dropped by the Folly Theater downtown for a performance by the Heartland Men’s Chorus or City in Motion Dance Theater, or perhaps to hear a concert in the Harriman Jewel series.
Joyce DiDonato and Rosanne Cash will grace the stage there, this weekend. But decades ago, Kansas City came perilously close to losing the Folly to the wrecking ball, a fate that befell all of its contemporaries.
But as your about to see, in this edition of our performARTS series, in conjunction with KC Studio Magazine, against all the odds, this 112-year-old theater at 12th & Central is very much alive and well.

Kansas City is a great arts town and there’s a lot going on, particularly on our city’s stages, this weekend.
We leave you this week with scenes from two new productions. First, the fast paced farcical thriller comedy, The Mystery of Irma Vep at the Kansas City Repertory Theater.
Then there’s the political rock n rock musical Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson at the Unicorn Theater.
