Description
The University of Missouri-Kansas City invites you to
An Evening with Claybourne Elder
Broadway’s Claybourne Elder ("Company," HBO’s "The Gilded Age") brings his sold-out Joe’s Pub concert to UMKC for a hilarious and heartfelt evening. Using his favorite music from the Great American Songbook, Sondheim, and beyond, Elder explores fatherhood, religion and love.
Come see why critics call him “handsome and intense” (Observer), “tough and tender” (New York Daily News) and “as stupid funny as he is drop-dead buff” (The Wrap).
Open to the community, this free signature event is RSVP only. Reserve your seat today!
As part of the evening, we will also celebrate the recipient of the
2025 C. Stephen Metzler Pride Champion Award — Jolie Justus.
Past recipients include Don Hall Jr. and former Mayor Kay Barnes.
