April 26 and 27, LED presents Kid Lightning at the Morrison Center for the Performing Arts! Buy tickets here.
Kid Lightning tells the story of a group of talented contestants on a popular game show. Set within a 1970’s stylized world, these individuals push their limits to claim fame and enter the intoxicating arena of celebrity, only to discover that it was more than they bargained for.
Described as “a creative triumph,” Kid Lightning is a wild journey, using dance, original music and stunning visuals to tell a story rooted in our shared humanity.
