Hancher

Based on true events, Kinky Boots follows the journey of two people with nothing in common — or so they think. The unlikely pair find that they have more in common than they realized ... and discover that you change the world when you change your mind.

Join us as Davóne Tines leads a public masterclass of his own devising featuring four exceptional students enrolled in the vocal program at the University of Iowa School of Music. 

The concert features UIowa School of Music ensembles playing a program entirely of Jessie Montgomery's repertoire, by students and ensemble who have engaged with Jessie over the course of her residency.

Join us for a longstanding Hancher tradition as The Hancher Youth Art Show returns! This year, young artists from 27 area schools will have their work displayed in the Hancher lobby.

Ronni Favors, a former dancer and current rehearsal director for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, born and raised in Iowa City, will be in conversation with assistant professor of history and African American studies Ashley Howard, about artistic expression, home, and the Black Midwestern experience.
