KC Studio Magazine Reviews "Icarus flew" + "21 Chump Street"
"At Spinning Tree Theatre, Young Talent Abounds..."
"It’s almost become a Covid cliché: if a business or organization wanted to weather the pandemic, the only path was to 'pivot.' Or, in the case of Spinning Tree Theatre, to 'reimagine'—and not just find new ways to build audiences, but to broaden opportunities for the next generation.
"Two short pieces—a world premiere by a Kansas City playwright, and a Kansas City premiere from a world-famous artist—offer a glimpse of what already is, and what could be.
"The talent may be young, but the theatre they make is not; both works entertain while confronting difficult ideas (and Spinning Tree officially recommends the performance for ages 13 and up)."
OUR MISSION
Spinning Tree Theatre provides opportunities for young artists – with disabilities and without disabilities – to collaborate with professional artists in creating, rehearsing and performing plays and musicals. We believe that all people have a right to experience and participate in the arts, and that theatre offers uniquely positive avenues for building relationships, developing creativity, and increasing confidence.
