At 10:30 we welcome Kansas City based playwright, Cynthia Hardeman who joins us to share details about her new play, Sun Of The Revolution, co-written with hip hop artist Storm for this year’s KC Fringe Festival, with performances running July 21 through July 29 at Phosphor Studio in Kansas City. This play explores the generational gap between today’s style of hip hop in comparisons to the Golden Era. When a young man disturbs an older gentleman’s peace on a train ride, a battle of will and wit ensues. More information at: kcfringe.org/2017/07/01/sun-of-the-revolution/
