Ghostlight Theatricals: Battling Bards & Rock n' Roll Moliere
Last Saturday, people were getting turned away at the door of Stone Soup Theatre out on Stone Way, as the walkways were already filled with the sell-out crowd at the last night of Ghostlight Theatricals's annual "Battle of the Bards" contest. Onstage, a bevy of Ghostlight regulars put on selections from three adaptations (we use the term loosely) of theatre classics. The audience voted (one vote came with the ticket; additional votes could be purchased for $1) on their favorite, which would get produced the next year as their winter show. Last year's winner, Lauren Goldman Marshall's "rock n' roll" adaptation of Moliere's ).
Can't Miss It: Wednesday
BATTLING HIPSTER SHOWS: Which music venue will the hoodied fixie-riders descend upon tonight? We think the vast majority will suffer the all-ages (no drinking) five-band-strong line-up at the Vera Project with Raggedy Annes, Strong Killings, and Japanther. The stragglers, who can't see a show without PBR or at a venue off the Hill, will be heading to Chop Suey for Does It Offend You, Yeah? and Team Robespierre.

We love everything about this photo: the angle, the fish-eye lens, the electric blueness of the sky, the ombre thing happening with the sky's blues fading into each other, the architectural qualities of the shot, and a Seattle sunburst.
