KC Performs | A Quixotic New Year’s Day Celebration
January 1, 2021 | | 1 min read
Goodbye and good riddance, 2020. Welcome, 2021.
To ring in the new year, here are a few words of encouragement from Anthony Magliano, founder and creative director of Quixotic.
“This year has been extremely challenging, for not only Quixotic, but other performing arts communities and companies,” Magliano says. “We could all use your support… All of our wishes right now are to move forward, stay positive and continue creating to the best of our abilities in these challenging times.”
Here’s to better times in 2021 for Kansas City’s performing arts community.
Until then, enjoy this performance by Quixotic, part of “KC Performs,” a new Kansas City PBS show designed to share a broadcast stage with local performing arts groups whose venues have been darkened by the pandemic.
We hope the attached video can help you resolve to stay positive.
