KCRep Presents ‘The Ripple, The Wave that Carried Me Home’

The Ripple, The Wave That Carried Me Home is a moving exploration of a family’s response to injustice and a daughter’s reckoning with her political inheritance.

Janice’s parents are prominent activists fighting for the integration of public swimming pools in 1960s Kansas. As injustice penetrates the warm bubble of her childhood, Janice grows apart from her family and starts a new life far away. When she receives a call asking her to speak at a ceremony honoring her father, she must decide whether she’s ready to reckon with her political inheritance and a past she has tried to forget. A deeply moving story about justice, legacy, memory and the ultimate challenge of forgiveness. Click here for tickets and showtimes.
