IGUDESMAN & JOO -Over 35 million YouTube views and sold-out performances around the world have turned the inspired lunacy of musicians Igudesman & Joo into a global hit show. For them, the mix of music, comedy and theatre is its own art form.
Think Mozart hijacked by Monty Python, South Park meets Bach, and you have some idea of the mayhem created at the highest level of musicianship on worldwide stages by violinist Aleksey Igudesman and pianist Hyung-ki Joo, two classically-trained artists who are filling concert halls and stadiums with their uproarious approach to the concert performance. Their collective dream is to make classical music accessible to a wider and younger audience.
Igudesman & Joo perform at the Polsky Theatre in Overland Park, KS. Sunday, October 25, 2015, 7:00 PM

Chain of Hope with Kate Quigley- Chain of Hope’s primary goal is to alleviate the suffering of abused and neglected animals within the urban core of Kansas City. We rescue, rehabilitate, re-home or transfer homeless or unwanted pets. We provide public education on the proper care and treatment of animals and give shelter animals much needed love and attention. Chain of Hope’s mission is to reduce pet overpopulation by spaying and neutering all pets and encouraging others to do the same. Our ultimate goal is to break the chain of ignorance, break the chain of suffering, and break the chain of unwanted litters.
