The 20th Annual Kansas City Storytelling Celebration features a lineup of lively stories, anecdotes, myths, legends, and lessons.
Opening the evening is a Friday Night Family Fun storytelling concert at 6:30 p.m. It's followed by a ghost-tales session at 7—recommended for ages 8 and up—with multicultural storyteller Michael D. McCarty; Laura Packer, who spins both traditional
and original tales; Native American storyteller Dovie Thomason; and versatile showman Andy Offutt Irwin. There’s also music by Branson folklorists Mike and Nancee Micham.
