Bugs Bunny at The Symphony

Bring the whole family to experience a beloved classic brought to life! Bugs Bunny at the Symphony pairs sixteen vintage Looney Tunes cartoons with live orchestral music performed by the Kansas City Symphony. As the animated shorts play on the big screen, conductor George Daugherty leads the orchestra through the original scores composed by Kansas City's own Carl Stalling. You'll recognize favorites like "What's Opera, Doc?" and "The Rabbit of Seville," plus brand-new animations including a special short celebrating Bugs' 86th birthday. This is the symphony's 36th season presenting this family-friendly concert, and it's perfect for anyone who grew up watching these cartoons or wants to introduce them to a new generation. Whether your kids love Bugs Bunny or you're curious about experiencing animation paired with live classical music, this event delivers entertainment for all ages. Tickets are available through the Kauffman Center's box office, and showtimes include evening performances on Friday and Saturday, plus an afternoon Sunday option.
