MRT's 20th Anniversary Artist Collaboration
McKinney Repertory Theatre (MRT) is partnering with Kim Guthrie Art to celebrate our 20th Anniversary and 2023-24 Season. Kim will be creating five (5) pieces of art that embody the five (5) shows we are producing as part of our 20th Anniversary Season. The artworks will be featured on the posters for each of our shows (one piece of art per poster) for our 23-24 season:
- Clue by Jonathan Lynn
- Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol adapted by Dr. Andrew Harris
- Forever Plaid by Stuart Ross
- Steel Magnolias by Robert Harling
- The Diary of Anne Frank by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, Newly Adapted by Wendy Kesselman
Our goals for this project are:
- To celebrate the collaboration of two art forms (art and theater) and the importance of the two local arts in our community
- Gain local awareness on the collaboration and keep the arts in people’s minds
- To help establish McKinney as a cultural leader in North Texas
- To highlight the wide range of creative minds (from all the arts) that call McKinney home
Meet the artist
Kim Guthrie seeks to delight people with her humorous, “tongue in cheek” approach she uses in creating her art. The demanding work of varied subjects and mediums molded the gifted artist that she is today. Currently, Kim's focus is primarily creating whimsical oil paintings, portraits, and 3D Paper Mache characters.
