    It was our very first visit to the New Theatre & Restaurant, and we attended a December 2025…read moreevening performance of Nobody's Perfect starring the talented Jim O'Heir. He was so gracious after the show, chatting with everyone who stopped by the backstage door. We felt lucky to say hello and even snap a photo with him! The evening begins with garlic bread and salad, followed by a trip to the buffet line. There's a variety of proteins, including steak, pork, fried fish, and fried chicken, along with sides like vegetables, mashed potatoes, and mac and cheese. I wouldn't say the food is the highlight, but the overall experience and the venue itself are fantastic. Drinks and desserts (served during intermission) cost extra, though they're very reasonably priced. The audience tends to be older folks. I feel like like this is a hidden gem in Kansas City. It would be great to see them bring in some younger actors and actresses for added publicity so more people can discover what a special place this is.

    While visiting a colleague in Kansas, I was treated to this wonderful experience! It was a matinee…read moreshowing of a comedy skit of Nobody's Perfect starred by Jim O'Heir. I was told that we would have lunch buffet style before the actual performance began, however the buffet was 90 minutes before the performance so make sure to get there early. There were several coach buses that transported senior guests to the event. Upon entering the theater, we were directed to our assigned table, which had a great view of the stage. The way the theater was laid out, any table would have a great seat to watch. Off to the buffet lines, despite there were 3 separate lines, it was moving slow due to the elderly guests taking their time. But once the lines were clear, it was east to come back for seconds. At the beginning of the line was a display case of all their huge dessert offerings, that you pick one as part of meal that would be served during intermission. The buffet had a variety of cuisines such as Asian, Italian, and American. Their beef stroganoff was delicious! Once we settled back at our table, our server took our drink and dessert order. Overall, the venue was well organized and clean. The Theater & Restaurant concept was amazing! It's so convenient that there is no need to go to 2 different places for dining and entertainment. Definitely a great place to have wonderful time! Highly Recommend if ever in Overland Park!

There was no question that I'd even need to shop around for a better deal or experience. Mike was top notch professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. On the big day, he quickly set up the equipment, played an additional memory slideshow and music, and made a bunch of our neighborhood kiddos weeks with his popcorn machine. The sound quality and screen quality was perfect, even as a Christopher Nolan film usually demands an IMAX. For all future movie set ups for our family and probably our neighborhood, we'll be using Backyard Box Office KC

We connected with Michael about hosting a movie night for our volunteers and staff at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, and he immediately responded to our request and scheduled a time for a site visit. From our first interaction, he was friendly, genuine, on time, and communicative without fail. He has immense knowledge about his industry & equipment and has an impressive arsenal of processes in place so that his team is ready for anything. We had to postpone our first date due to weather, and Michael was in communication with us the whole time we were working to reschedule. We even had a hiccup with our planned site the night of our rescheduled event, and he and his team pivoted their entire set-up process like it was nothing. As a person in the events industry, I cannot say enough about their unwaveringly calm demeanor and creative problem solving. The night of the event, they arrived with plenty of time to set up the screen, sound system, lights, and popcorn machine. Everything was set up on time and looked organized. The screen was bright and displayed the picture beautifully, and the sound system was top notch. Michael and his team worked tirelessly to make our event seamless so that our staff could enjoy the event as well, and they thought of every little thing. They were prepared for anything & the pinnacle of professionalism, and I cannot wait to work with them again!

They have all the instruments so anything your kiddo likes they can try. The instructors are mostly previous students who are still "young and cool" so they have a great connection with the younger crowd. One on one music lessons are available and or join the school band that is tailored to their age group. They play in shows and practice together regularly to form lasting friendships with their band mates. Everyone who works here is fantastic and very musically inclined and knowledgeable. We finally feel like we've found our music home for lessons and all around musical enjoyment. Seen the movie? Yeah, this place is even better. Try it out, you won't be disappointed.

Went up to playing his first show on drums with the band, which they happily named The Snake Skulls! Price can get a little steep, but if you can afford it, it's one of the best places we've been for music lessons. The staff is amazing and welcoming. Kyle was terrific with the kids and would always stop to talk music with me when he could. Jeremy is extremely helpful with anything you need and would answer all my questions about drum tech, even helping us find a good deal on an electric kit for our son to practice on at home. Hopefully one day, we will be able to start lessons here again.
