KC Repertory Theatre – A Fearless Fête

 

Kansas City Repertory Theatre’s A Fearless Fête – Mission to Planet Rep was held on May 20th. Blast-off site was Spencer Theatre, located in the James C. Olson Performing Arts Center on the UMKC campus. Kathy and Mark Donovan served as the chairmen. Guests – many of them in galactic attire – enjoyed a stellar musical performance by Shanna Jones and Jenny Ashman, heavenly creations prepared by local eateries and space-themed activities. Proceeds are earmarked for future productions, the OriginKCNew Works Program, and the education programs enjoyed by more than 11,000 area students. Now, that’s out of this world!
