Tickets for the 435 Magazine performance on Saturday at 2:30PM are just $4.35. They are available at the door or by calling the Ticket Office at 913-341-8156.
Music Theatre for Young People productions attract some of the best and brightest young music theatre talent in Kansas City. "Into The Woods" is no different, featuring the talents of Blue Star Nominees Katie Martin and Anthony Fortino (both from St. Thomas Aquinas High School), and Caleb Hoffman (from Kearney High School). Typically, MTYP's productions are staged with a full pit orchestra and staffed by Broadway veterans; even more remarkably, the students only have one week to rehearse before presenting this musical. This is accomplished by rehearsing intensely for six consecutive 12-hour days.
Music Theatre for Young People has a reputation as being a premier not-for-profit educational organization, dedicated to enriching young peoples' lives.
