Fall Musical Performance Coming November 20-21

Kickapoo Theatre is pleased to announce our fall musical production is Forbidden Broadway's Greatest Hits.  To maintain safety for all, we are producing this performance virtually.   

Kickapoo will also be participating and competing in the Missouri State Thespian Festival in January.  Last year a record number of our students qualified for the International Festival.

As in the previous years, our students are looking for sponsors to support them with these endeavors. Now more than ever, we could use your help.  If you know a Kickapoo Theatre student, the money collected from you will go straight to that student to support them with their personal expenses involved in these activities.

​Please check out the different forms and levels of support linked below.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Our target date for donations is October 2.  Send all requests and questions to Michael Butcher (mbutcher@spsmail.org).
