To spend a summer in Kansas City is to endure weeks of miserably oppressive, sticky, radiating heat. But there are a few perks. One of them is Cirque du Sucré’s lusciously gooey, chewy, and — if you’re doing it right — very cold French macaron ice cream sandwiches, which are generally only offered during summer months. The fist-sized macaron ice…
Of all the overused quotes adorning Pinterest walls, perhaps the most wretched is the out-of-context first line of William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night: “If music be the food of love, play on.”A closer reading — as in, read the next line— of Duke Orsino’s opening monologue reveals a less sunny worldview. And a closer reading, in more ways than one, is…
(Note: Two weeks after I filed this story for print — it’s in the June issue of The Pitch, out now — Muncheeez Deli vacated its former location and burrowed inside the nearby MO Brew like a parasite. Much of the menu survived the trip, but Muncheee and his minions — see below — stayed behind. You can see them…
Swedish sister Americana act First Aid Kit plowed through Kansas City last night with a sold-out performance at the Truman that drew a rapturous response from the sweaty crowd. The night’s material pulled heavily from the band’s latest release, Ruins, but also featured crowd favorites including “The Lion’s Roar”, “My Silver Lining” and a growling, guitar-drenched cover of Heart’s “Crazy…
Boulevard Brewing Company may technically now be owned by Belgians, but Boulevardia remains a deeply KC affair — and a worthy destination for beer heads, maker types, and music fans alike. The two-day festival, which returns to the Stockyards District this year, features live performances from Kansas City favorites (Tech N9ne, Yes You Are, Radkey) and national touring acts (Bleachers, Lee…
Few KC traditions are as low-key wonderful as the Heart of America Shakespeare Festival in Southmoreland Park, which opens this evening. Pick a night — the show runs Tuesday through Sunday, 8 p.m. — pack a picnic and a blanket, and get cozy under the summer stars for this year’s production of Much Ado About Nothing. As always, the show…
The Coathangers, an all-female Atlanta trio now 12 years into an accidental career, remain a reliable source of frenzied and harsh punk jams. They’re at RecordBar tonight, joined by Salty, an all-male local quartet with not-dissimilar ideas about the genre. ♦The CoathangersTuesday, June 12RecordBarrecordbar.com Categories: Music
Tuesday, June 12Get a jump on Father’s Day with an international whiskey tasting at Julep (4141 Pennsylvania Avenue).

Tickets are $50, including tax and tip. The event is…
Best known as the white guy who co-created Chapelle’s Show, Neal Brennan has continued to thrive behind the scenes, directing Michelle Wolf’s HBO standup special Nice Lady, episodes of Inside Amy Schumer, and writing for The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. Brennan is gradually coming into his own as a performer, though, as he demonstrated on last year’s engaging Netflix…
Dear Dan: I’ve been married to my husband for two years. Five months into our relationship (before we got married), he confessed that he was an adult baby. I was so grossed out, I was literally ill. (Why would this great guy want to be like this?) I told him he would have to choose: diapers or me. He chose…
FADE IN: INTERIOR — JUNGLE LAW GROUP OFFICE — DAYWe OPEN on a circular table in a glassy conference room. Seated around the table are five individuals: an UNSAVORY JOURNALIST and four members of the JUNGLE LAW GROUP. There’s TRISTEN WOODS — late 30s; long, flowing blonde hair; crisp shirt; Fabio at the office. Beside him is his wife, LAUREN KRUSKALL — mid 30s; longer,…
Before David Byrne’s show last night at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, birdsong filled the theater, part of a nature sounds recording. For the 1,750 of us lucky enough to nab a ticket, it offered a peaceful contrast to the usual before-show music. And it preceded one of the most artful performances I’ve attended in my two-and-a-half decades…
There’s a common trope in fictional works about transgender characters: the “anchor man” dropped in to make dazed cisgender folk feel more comfortable. You know the type: the well-intentioned but not-quite-with-it friend or relative who thinks this is all just happening a little fast, you know? About 10 minutes into Hir, the Unicorn Theatre’s season-ending stunner on family and gender, I…
Kansas City’s still-new Black Repertory Theatre closes its second season with a visit to Memphis — a bluesy, humor-filled, rock-and-roll-infused musical that won four Tony awards in 2010, including for best musical, best book of a musical, and best original score. Directed here by Damron Russel Armstrong (who is also BRT’s artistic director), Memphis is a smooth-running production that flows in…
Har Mar Superstar (aka Sean Tillman) is a white, balding, round, middle-aged Minneapolitan who has spent the better part of the last two decades crooning retro-soul songs to beery crowds. This time out, Har Mar is treating audiences to something a little more elegant, performing the songs of Sam Cooke in a suit and tie. (His band will also be…
This Saturday, June 9, marks the 18th annual West 18th Street Fashion Show, which makes this year its golden birthday (or something like that). Tickets are available here. The theme this year is “Summer Migration.” According to the event’s organizers, “We ask designers to present us with their heritage, their history, and to re-contextualize the garments of their ancestors. We ask…
The political has never seemed so personal in Skylight, a 1995 play by David Hare that feels like it could have been written yesterday. The action unfolds over the course of a single day in the apartment of Kyra Hollis (Katie Karel), a 30-something math teacher working with underprivileged kids in East Ham. Kyra’s spent the past few years performing penance…
Nudity is baked into the Rockfest experience. It has always been thus. At my first Rockfest — I’m 21 now; I was in middle school then — bare breasts abounded: you saw them as you entered the grounds, you saw them by the concessions, you saw them being offered up in the front row to the performers. Last year, the festival,…
Started in 2013, Hear Now is the “only festival of its kind in the U.S. dedicated to the art of recorded and live audio story-telling in all its many genres and forms,” according to festival director Cynthia Allen. The fest, presented by National Audio Theatre Festivals, returns to Kansas City this weekend. “It started with a group of artists who had…
