A Father's Poder

Experience a meaningful evening with A Father's Poder, a theatrical production brought to life by Kansas City, Kansas Public Schools students. This compelling show tells the true story of Saturino Alvarado, a Mexican immigrant father who fought tirelessly in the 1920s to secure his children's right to attend Argentine High School—and succeeded. The Argentine Betterment Corporation and VisitKCK have organized this dinner and theatre event to celebrate both this remarkable historical moment and Argentine High School's lasting legacy in the community. This is a wonderful opportunity to support young performers while connecting with an important piece of local history. The evening combines a meal with live theatre, making it a complete cultural experience for families interested in education, immigrant stories, and community pride. It's perfect for parents and kids who appreciate historical narratives and want to support student performers in the Kansas City area.
