Fun Home Postponed out of Precaution

Due to possible exposure to a member of the “Fun Home” cast/crew and given the rising case rates of COVID-19 in communities surrounding Southwestern College, the theatre department has decided to postpone the performance originally planned for this weekend until January 22, 23 and 24, 2021. 

“We’ve been adhering to a safety plan since we began meeting to prepare for this production, and the safety of the students and staff involved with the production remains a top priority,” said Joshua Robinson, assistant professor of musical theatre and director of “Fun Home.” “Though we are sad to have to wait a bit longer to share this important story, we know it is best to proceed with an abundance of caution.”

Patrons who already purchased tickets for the show may contact the SC Box Office by calling (620) 229-7720 or emailing boxoffice@sckans.edu to request a refund. Alternatively, purchased tickets will be applied to the new show dates in January. Performance dates will be confirmed and announced in the coming weeks.

“The cast and crew are planning to take the extra time to polish the production and cannot wait to take our audience to the ‘Fun Home’ in January,” said Robinson.
