2019-2020 Season 15 Subscription Information

Here’s what KCAT has in store for you next season:

Morning’s at Seven by Paul Osborn

Directed by Dennis Hennessy

May 22 – June 9 @ The City Stage in Union Station

A much-loved, but rarely-performed classic, this charming portrait of life in a small mid-western town in 1938 follows a quartet of sisters living near each other and the comic chaos of their lives. Directed by The New Theatre’s Dennis Hennessy, who previously directed The Gin Game and I’m Not Rappaport, and featuring Deb Bluford, Greg Butell, Krista Eyler, Peggy Friesen, Jeannine Hutchings, Gary Neal Johnson, Merle Moores, Victor Raider-Wexler, and Mark Robbins (KCAT co-founder).

A Doll’s House by Henrik Ibsen

Directed by Darren Sextro

August 7 – 25 @ The City Stage in Union Station

A Doll’s House will be our first production of Ibsen; it’s been on our radar before and is finally getting its day. A scandal when it was first produced and an almost instant classic, this story of a married woman searching to carve out her own place in the world was way ahead of its time when it premiered in 1879. Still startling relevant, this show will be sure to feature the great, artist-focused performances you’ve come to expect from KCAT. Featuring Hillary Clemens, Todd Lanker, Christina Schafer, Tyler Alan Rowe, Brian Paulette, and Carla Noack.

“Master Harold”… and the Boys by Athol Fugard

Directed by Gary Heisserer

September 11 – 29 @ The City Stage in Union Station

Our third production by Athol Fugard, “Master Harold”… and the Boys is Fugard’s semi-autobiographical account of growing up in South Africa during the apartheid era. A surprising and subtle reflection on how institutional racism and bigotry affects all of those living in it, this production stands to be an unforgettable classic in its own right. Featuring: Walter Coppage (KCAT co-founder), Arthur Clifford, and Khalif Gillette.

‘night, Mother by Marsha Norman

Directed by Sidonie Garrett

January 8-26 @ The City Stage in Union Station

A Pulitizer Prize-winning tragedy, ‘night, Mother is the story of a woman driven to her breaking point. A harsh reflection on modern life and its purpose, the performances and impact of this show will leave an indelible impression. Featuring: Jan Rogge and Cinnamon Schultz.

We invite you to join us for a season of memories. A season of unmatched experiences. A season of challenges. And a season of reminders of what it means to be alive. Join us for our 15th Season of theatre.
