The MTC Kids Jam concert series is specially designed with families in mind! Join us in the MTC lobby at 10 a.m. for art activities, followed by an hour-long concert. Matt Heaton was raised in the golden age of kids’ media. “The Muppets,” “Free to Be You and Me,” “Sesame Street,” “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood” and more all provided the soundtrack of his early childhood. He tries to bring elements of those classic shows—the musicianship, the wit, the respect and kindness—to families today. His songs blend the mid-century rockabilly, surf, soul, western swing, and country music he loves with a sense of humor that works for both kids and adults. Heaton’s music connects with kids on an organic level, without the AI-generated bombast that fills the algorithms. His songs are full of good messages and good fun. He has songs about math and feelings, which sit beside beloved “dance numbers” and hits like “Don’t Drink the Water (That Your Butt’s Been In)." Whether he’s doing a show at a library, a theater or a pub, he plays to both the kids and adults in the room.

Ryan & Ryan is a dynamic father-son piano duo that blends classic and contemporary music into an enthralling concert experience. From Rachmaninoff to Gershwin to Billy Joel, Donald and Barron Ryan combine their talents to create a dazzling blend of old and new schools. A native of Trinidad & Tobago, Donald came to the United States to study music, earning degrees from Oral Roberts University and the University of Tulsa. He is well-known as a master of diverse styles—evidenced by a diploma from the 9th International Chopin Competition, as well as his induction into the Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame. Donald has also earned the distinction of being among the most accomplished pianists in the world as a Steinway Artist. Given his father’s profession, Barron’s choice of playing the piano is no surprise, and he has been no stranger to the stage since the age of four. He distinguished himself in piano studies at the University of Oklahoma and has been a featured soloist at the Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame and the Tulsa Performing Arts Center, among many other venues. Barron has also been a prizewinner in numerous piano competitions, including the Oklahoma Israel Exchange Young Artists Competition in 2011.

Come and be swept up in romantic lyricism as violinist Stella Chen joins your Kansas City Symphony to perform Samuel Barber’s Violin Concerto. Hear one sublime melody after another and feel the excitement of the nonstop perpetual-motion finale. Sergei Prokofiev’s Sixth Symphony is a profound work dedicated to the victims of World War II, by turns lyrical, austere, bright and unsettling. The final movement, according to the composer, reflects on “questions cast into eternity” and “wounds that cannot be healed,” and ends in a major key but with doubts unresolved. Featuring: Ludovic Morlot, guest conductor Stella Chen, violin Program: SOFIA GUBAIDULINA, Fairytale Poem SAMUEL BARBER, Violin Concerto SERGEI PROKOFIEV, Symphony No. 6

Presented by Harriman-Jewell Series at The Folly Theater Kansas City, MO
Created & Performed by Patrick Page Directed by Simon Godwin This event will run for two nights! Thursday, November 5 and Friday, November 6, 2026. Dubbed “the villain of Broadway” by Playbill, Tony Award® nominee and GRAMMY® Award winner Patrick Page has never shied away from exploring the dark side. Now, with this tour de force show, he turns his attention to the twisted motivation and hidden humanity at the heart of Shakespeare’s greatest villains. Moving swiftly through the Shakespeare canon, Page illuminates the playwright’s ever-evolving conception of evil by delving into more than a dozen of his most wicked creations. Thrilling, biting, hilarious, and enlightening, what Page delivers is a masterclass on the most terrifying subject of them all: human nature.

Often hailed as the gold standard of opera, Mozart’s masterful, hilarious portrayal of an extraordinary wedding day marries sparkling wit with profound insights on love, aging, forgiveness, and, ultimately, the joy of coming together. As they prepare to tie the knot, Susanna and Figaro must contend with their amorous employer Count Almaviva; his wife, the Countess; the scheming Marcellina; and a colorful cast of characters who place numerous (and often amusing) obstacles in their path to the altar. Love wins, carried by music of breathtaking beauty, warmth, and humanity. Tickets are on sale now, or get discounts on tickets by becoming a Lyric Opera subscriber.
