Item Description
Winner receives two tickets to see the Störling Dance Theater's Production of the acclaimed "Underground" ballet and attend the Gala event prior to the show. The Gala Event begins at 5:00pm on Saturday, February 8, 2014 at The Promise Event Space located at 1814 Oak Street in Kansas City, Missouri, and features special guest speaker, Christopher Miller from the Freedom Center in Cincinnati!
After the Gala, the ballet will be performed on Saturday, February 8, 2014 at 7:30pm in the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, 1601 Broadway, Kansas City, MO 64108.
Chosen as one of the Top Performances of the DECADE in Kansas City, "Underground" is an original ballet and based on the true stories of everyday people who fought injustice with freedom and courage to unshackle a nation. The initial idea began back in 2000 when Jeremiah & Mona Enna began to see the American culture divide more than unite on issues of race and began to dream of ways to heal from the past offenses of slavery and racism. After doing much praying and studying, they found the historic movement called "The Underground Railroad" a key example of good people uniting to overcome evil and a signpost for our own generation pointing forward.
"Underground" premiered on February 8th, 2008 at the Lyric Theater in Kansas City to a packed house and rave reviews. The Kansas City Star wrote, "It is without doubt one of the most vivid, heartfelt and theatrically astute pieces of dance theater ever to grace a Kansas City stage...". With stunning performances by Tobin James, Marc Wayne, Courtney Kierl-Bourman, Mimmi Makela, and Yolanda Gibbs, Störling created a new story that will hopefully become a part of the fabric of Kansas City culture for years to come.
