Connect2Culture (C2C) is thrilled to start its 25-26 Performance Season with two performances this September.

“With exceptional music, intriguing theatrical productions, and even a tail-wagging show starring rescue dogs, this season will be filled with more unforgettable moments than the last,” says Emily Frankoski, Executive Director of C2C. “We’re thrilled to start this can’t-miss season in September with two performances: Sons of Serendip and Casi Joy.”








All performances in the 2025-2026 season will be held at C2C’s home theater—the 419-seat Beshore Performance Hall—or its outdoor amphitheater—the 1000-person Leggett & Platt Green—at the Cornell Complex.

Sons of Serendip, the Billboard-charting classical-crossover quartet, has captivated audiences worldwide with its ethereal sound and emotionally stirring performances. Combining vocals, harp, piano, and cello, the group creates cinematic arrangements that reimagine pop and classical favorites. Finalists on America’s Got Talent (NBC), they have since performed with the Boston Pops, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and Grammy-winner Cynthia Erivo, as well as for Oprah Winfrey’s 2020 Vision Tour and Dubai’s EXPO 2020. With four acclaimed albums and a reputation for soulful, inspiring performances, Sons of Serendip continues to win hearts and elevate audiences wherever they perform.

With more than 50 million video views and a four-chair turn on NBC’s The Voice, Casi Joy has become one of country music’s most exciting rising stars. Known for her vibrant stage presence and signature blend of traditional country and modern pop, the Kansas City native has shared stages with Keith Urban, Maren Morris, Carly Pearce, and Montgomery Gentry, among others. Joy’s performances have graced major events like the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade and the Plaza Lighting Ceremony. Her original music, including The Bright Side and Miles & Maybes, has earned widespread acclaim from Rolling Stone, Billboard, and CMT.

“We can’t wait to share this exciting season with the Joplin area and beyond!” says Frankoski. “And of course, none of these incredible performances would be possible without the support of our generous sponsors, including our top four—Freeman Health System, Sharon and Lance Beshore, Debra and David Humphreys, and EaglePicher Technologies.”
