HAUNTED SOIREE TAKES ON TRUE CRIME IN A NEW IMMERSIVE HALLOWEEN EXPERIENCE A bizarre 1928 murder, German-American folk magic and a mysterious book of spells inspire a two-hour Halloween celebration of drinks, live entertainment and immersive theatre. Every toast. Every game...
Dear Readers, I don’t mean to make anyone feel ancient but “A Chorus Line” is 51 years old! And the 5th Avenue Theatre dusting off the old girl for their current remount may feel like a bit of nostalgia. But if their spectacular production proves anything, it’s that “A Chorus Line” is …
What’s better than roaring laughter and a night at the theater? How about laughing with roaring dinosaurs at the theater! The Habit Comedy is combining every element for a good time now through September 27 at the Seattle Public Theater on Green Lake, as Jurassic Parking Lot makes its colossal ret…
