Kansas City! Audition for the remount of the sleeper hit of the 2025 holiday season!

Whim Productions is excited to announce that we're remounting Kevin King's My Kid's Christmas Program in 2026, directed by Steven Eubank.

SIGN UP TO AUDITION: https://airtable.com/apps034sNXOij1hOT/pagEESUaaivoMU8JH/form

ABOUT THE SHOW: The tinsel’s tangled, the pageant’s off the rails, and Miss Peach’s Academy has lost its auditorium, but the show must go on!

You’re invited to the annual holiday pageant for Miss Peach’s Academy. Forced to relocate to Whim Space after a series of mishaps, the “kids” (played by adults) are ready to belt and blunder their way through a holiday pageant like no other. It’s the holiday program you remember... just with more sass, irreverence, and emotional baggage. A delightfully twisted immersive experience for the grown-ups who survived grade-school pageants.

All the roles are played by adults.

Actors will receive a stipend.

KEY PRODUCTION DATES:
Rehearsal Dates: Nov 8 - Dec 2nd
Off Nov 25 & 26, Dec 1
Off Fridays and Saturdays

Production Dates: Dec 3rd - 13th, 2026
