Every once in a while, a show comes along that feels like you are catching something before the rest of the world does. That is the experience with Here and Their, now performing at 12th Ave Arts. This original musical production epitomizes local Seattle theater at its finest. It is original, funny, tender, layered, and filled with heart. That it is happening in a small black box space makes it all the more impressive.
The world premiere of nonbinary musical HERE AND THEIR, with book by local artist Jasmine Joshua, music/lyrics by Heather Ragusa, and story by Jasmine Joshua and Alexei Cifrese, will run on Capitol Hill throughout Pride Month.
