John!
💃 100 people
🌟 5 world-class voices
👸 1 Prom Queen
And a Saturday night Wichita is still buzzing about.
Last week's STARDUST: 1985 Battle for Prom Queen delivered exactly what we promised: Kaitlyn York, Mindi Trimble, Erin Gilmore, Georgeanne Elisabeth Yehling, and Prom Queen winner Carter Tholl bringing operatic fire over balloon sculptures, slow dances, and truly spectacular hair.
These aren't just voices. They're artists with serious national credentials and deep Kansas roots who came together to prove opera can be exactly this fun, this immediate, this alive.

But here's what made STARDUST really resonate: the conversations.
BreAnna Monk (Wichita Festivals), Angela Cassette (Music Theatre Wichita), and Heather Schroeder (Downtown Wichita) spoke about what this city is becoming—a place where art isn't just happening to us, but because of us.
You made STARDUST the talk of the town. Now make what's next possible.
KEEP THE CONVERSATION GOING!
Tuesday, December 2, is Giving Tuesday.

Every dollar you invest continues building the Wichita where opera nights feel like the best party you've ever crashed, where empathy gets louder, and where more voices—like the five who slayed last Saturday—get to take the stage.
This isn't charity. This is investing in the Wichita you want to live in.
