William Inge's uproarious comedy. On a snowy, stormy, night in rural Kansas, Missouri, about 25 miles west of Kansas City, a diner can be an oasis, a prison, a place to hide, or a place to discover yourself. The sheriff has closed the road, forcing the driver and passengers to spend the night at the diner. A mismatched group of dreamers and cowboys, waitresses and outcasts find unexpected warmth in one another. Portraying these characters on stage at The Adobe Theater are Jessica Alden, Mario Cabrera, Scott Claunch, Bryan Hertweck, Nicholas Johnson, Catalina Lehner, Castalia Mayerhofer, and Joel D. Miller, directed by Georgia Athearn.

“Sentient Structures: The Art of Skye Tafoya + SABA,” on view through November 2, 2025, showcases the work of two artists creating architecturally-inspired expressions in materials that respond to the senses. Skye Tafoya (Eastern Band Cherokee/Santa Clara Pueblo) weaves paper structures and embeds knowledge in them through her printmaking processes. SABA (Diné/Jemez Pueblo) makes paintings and prints that anchor Pueblo architecture as evolving sites of home. This exhibition offers innovative approaches to printmaking, painting, and book arts and blurs the lines between two and three-dimensional mediums.
Free for museum members, or with admission.
