Heart of America Shakespeare Festival – ROMANtic Revels
ROMANtic Revels featured a Roman theme this year, complete with a sword fight scene by HASF actors in appropriate garb, bringing a taste of Julius Caesar to the evening! The February 10th gala was held at the InterContinental Kansas City at the Plaza. Partygoers enjoyed cocktails, a gourmet dinner, a silent auction, and dancing. Diana and Jim Cusser were the honorary chairmen, and Merrily Jackson and the late Jim Jackson were honored with the Founder’s Award. Proceeds from the event benefit Heart of America Shakespeare Festival’s education programs and the 32nd summer season at Southmoreland Park.
