Join us at The Warwick Theatre in Kansas City for our 8th Invasion of International Theatre. Shows from Fringe Festivals in Edinburgh and Adelaide onstage in the Heartland.
We'll have cocktails and hors d'oeuvres followed by a rendition of Dylan Thomas' A Child's Christmas in Wales with Guy Masterson. Rounding out the evening, we'll toast the season with Guy's world famous eggnog (from a recipe handed down from the middle ages).
Famed for bringing multiple characters to vivid life, Masterson recreates Scrooge, Marley, the Fezziwigs, Tiny Tim et al in an enchanting, performance that will dazzle and linger long in the memory. Guaranteed to get you into the Christmas Spirit - in many more ways than one!
In his inimitable way Pip Utton brings the most famous of all scientists to life with his passions for science, religion, women, music and all of life!
The clue is in her name, for Jenny was Karl Marx's wife... the force behind the "great" man. Yet, like many before and after her, history has conveniently airbrushed her out. As Jenny is given new life and a fresh voice by a researcher's pen, she finds that she, once again, has to fight for her truths to be told and her desperately moving story to be heard. Manifesting Mrs Marx is about a formidable woman trapped between the lines of history books and silenced by the patriarchy.
The University’s most peculiar professor has made a remarkable discovery. He’s thrilled - but why is his lecture today even stranger and wilder than usual? Come attend an odd, surreal comedy about Dickens, shipwrecks, the Venus de Milo, fainting poets and the fate of Western Culture.
Pip Utton is famed for his skill in breaking the fourth wall and speaking directly to an audience, involving them in the emotions of his performance. Based on his personal experience of seeing his mother deteriorate and die with Alzheimer's and on intensive research, Pip's character takes the audience with him on a journey full of smiles, laughter, respect and tears.
