State of the Art Production Facility


The Company also purchased and is renovating a property at 18th and Charlotte Streets in the Kansas City Crossroads Arts District.

This state of the art production and rehearsal facility will be the Company's new home when not in performance. In addition to housing the administrative offices, the facility will feature a full wig, costume and scenic construction shop, as well as rehearsal space that exactly mimics the stage of the Kauffman Center.
