The stars of Twin Peaks, including Ray Wise, Michael Horse, Kimmy Robertson, Sabrina S. Sutherland and Josh Eisenstadt, tour for an exclusive evening of stories, jokes and never-before-heard tales from the filming of the cult TV series. Twin Peaks was created by David Lynch and...
“The Shark Is Broken” is a fascinating invite into a hidden world that informs us how the sausage gets made when it comes to mega-hit films. This play snickers as three famous actors suffer “slings and arrows” while Bruce, a damned mechanical shark, turns turtle repeatedly during filming “…

It is not often that Kansas City audiences get the chance to see the “World Premiere” engagement of a new comedy from an award-winning Broadway performer and playwright. This month Unicorn Theatre presents “Don’t Touch My Hair,” by Douglas Lyons.…
