Postponement Announcement: North Side of the River

The LRM Foundation announces the postponement of its upcoming production, North Side of the River, which was scheduled to take place at the Lied Center of Kansas on January 17, 2026 during the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday.

This decision was made following the sudden and unexpected passing of a family member of the LRM Foundation Board of Directors. The LRM Foundation appreciates the understanding and compassion of the community during this time.

All updates will be shared through official LRM Foundation communication channels.

Those who wish to continue supporting the mission and work of the LRM Foundation are encouraged to do so by making a donation through the Foundation’s website: https://lrmlawrence.com/donate/

The LRM Foundation would like to thank the Lied Center of Kansas, supporters, partners, and the community for their continued support and understanding.
