The Folly team has been continuously tracking the Coronavirus situation and the potential effect it could have on our patrons, staff, and volunteers. The safety and wellbeing of these individuals are of the utmost importance to us so we have made several changes and decisions around this principle given the recent string of events.
Announced Tuesday, March 17th:
The Folly Theater, in cooperation with its presenters and performers, have postponed or canceled all events through May 10th, as directed by the State of Emergency declared by Mayor Quinton Lucas.
Over the next few weeks, the Folly Theater and its presenting partners will work with ticket holders to handle questions, concerns, exchanges, and refunds*.
*As guided by the presenting organization’s policies.
Updated on Saturday, March 21st:
As announced on Saturday, March 21, 2020 Kansas City, MO and surrounding counties are subject to a Stay-At-Home Order effective Tuesday, March 24th at 12:01 AM. In compliance with the city’s new order, the Folly Theater and the Administration Offices will be temporarily closed until said order is lifted.
