Review of Serenades: A Musical Thank You to You!

It’s not a KC Fringe without Brother John. This show recaps a lot of the highlights of past shows, as well as some stories about his history with the Fringe, as well as how he earned the name Brother John. You always leave a Brother John show smiling and this year’s edition is no exception.

Singing, Stories, delightful performance

Review of Serenades: A Musical Thank You to You!

A wonderful hour with a marvelous singer who embodies the artists he was paying tribute to. He wove stories from his time as an performer at previous Fringe Festivals as well as from his life between the songs. A delightful show!
