2009: WHAT'S NEXT

Movies, music and more: the big
shows of the coming year

Movies | An alien invasion

It’s never too soon for a Hollywood studio to start claiming prime opening dates for its films.

TV | So long, analog

The most significant change in television in my lifetime is taking place in 2009 — and the funny thing is, I probably won’t even notice.

Theater | Expect adventure

Never been seen here. Never been seen anywhere. Not seen here in decades. Those are the general themes for KC theater in 2009.

Jazz | Steady and solid

Some of the top jazz concerts of the season are yet to come. The first half of ’09 will present, if not an abundance, then surely a steady stream of solid jazz from big names in concert halls and clubs.

Visual arts | Full throttle ahead

The new year opens with all of Kansas City’s art museums going full throttle.

Our critic humbly submits his wish list for Kansas City theater

Here we are, staring down the barrel of a brand new year. This is the time when people take stock and think about all the things they hope to see in the coming months. Theater critics do that, too. And in the first few days of 2009 I find myself indulging fantasies about the kinds of things I’d really like to see on stage, if not in the next calendar year, then someday. And if not here, then somewhere.
