“Troy the Hillian” Theatre Performance at University of Puget Sound @ Norton Clapp Theatre at the University of Puget Sound
Tickets
Nov 3 @ 7:30 pm

In a post-apocalyptic future after the Great Storm, theatre artists and scholars gather to re-stage August Wilson’s “Fences,” while struggling with approval and financing from a fundamentalist Court. Illusion and reality are blurred, and not everyone is who they seem to be. Most interestingly, this inaugural production highlights the ongoing development process of the script and reflects the collaboration between the playwright and the actors. It will be a script-in-hand performance – a snapshot of a point in its evolution.

Written and Directed by Dr. Wind Dell Woods

Murder on the Orient Express-Pay What You Can @ Tacoma Little Theatre
Tickets
Nov 3 @ 7:30 pm

Eight suspects, one thrilling ride with this new adaptation by Ken Ludwig!

Board the exotic and mysterious Orient Express as it takes off into the opulence and grandeur of the 1930s. Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of year, but by the morning, it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, his door locked from the inside. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, the passengers rely on detective Hercule Poirot to identify the murderer – in case they decide to strike again. Join Poirot as he battles the clock to figure out “whodunit” in this sleek, stylish, and surprisingly comedic murder mystery.
