KILO⚡WAT Student Preview Registration Request
Plan-B Theatre presents a new play about Wat Misaka as part of the UtahPresents Stage Door Series at Kingsbury Hall: KILO⚡WAT by Aaron Asano Swenson, performed by Bryan Kido, both University of Utah alums. Target Grade: 7-12th
After leading the University of Utah men's basketball team to the 1944 NCAA Championship, point guard Wat "Kilo-Wat" Misaka was drafted into the U.S. Army and assigned to interview survivors of the atomic bombing in Hiroshima. After the war, he lead the team to the 1947 NIT Championship, completed his degree in mechanical engineering, and was drafted by the New York Knicks, breaking the color barrier in professional basketball.
KILO⚡WAT explores what it means to make history within history.
Provided at no cost - that's right, free! - through Plan-B Theatre's affiliation with Professional Outreach Programs in the Schools (POPS) through the Utah State Board of Education. **All student performances will have ASL-interpretation**
Registration requests are taken on a first come first served basis and admission is not guaranteed. You will be contacted within a week of your request. If you are not contacted within a week, please reach out to our Community Engagement Manager Melissa Salguero at melissa.salguero@utah.edu.
