Today in Lawrence: A crimson and blue revue
Have a cold one
After a chilly start in the mid-teens, temperatures are not going to get much above freezing today. The high is expected to hit 33 under sunny skies.
Annual revue
Kansas University’s student-run annual fundraising event “Rock Chalk Revue” returns to the Lied Center at 7 p.m. today, with shows running each night through Saturday.
Sororities and fraternities each produce a 25-minute original musical, and the theme of this year’s program is “The Best Is Yet to Come.” Tickets are available online at lied.ku.edu. Shows on Thursday and Friday cost $20, and Saturday’s show is $25. All proceeds are donated to charity.
