On Your Feet! makes its Kansas City premiere at Starlight

In its first national tour, the exhilarating original production On Your Feet! arrives at Starlight in just a few short weeks. An inspiring story about heart, heritage and two people who believed in their talent–and each other–On Your Feet! is sure to inspire audiences in Kansas City for six performances, May 22-27.

Based on the life story of seven-time Grammy Award-winning international superstar Gloria Estefan and her husband, 19-time Grammy-winning producer-musician-entrepreneur Emilio Estefan, On Your Feet! chronicles the couple’s inspiring journey from the heart of Havana to the streets of Miami where they became a cultural phenomenon unlike anything the music industry had ever seen. Kansas City audiences will delight in On Your Feet! with hits including, “Rhythm Is Gonna Get You,” “Conga,” “1-2-3,” and, of course, “Get On Your Feet.”

On Your Feet! opened on Broadway in November 2015 to critical acclaim and box office success. Nominated for the Tony Award for Best Choreography and winning the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Choreographer, this new hit musical is one Kansas Citians won’t want to miss.
