| Meg Austin in Seattle Vice '76 (Truman Buffett) |
It’s 1976, and Seattle’s infamous “tolerance policy”—the corrupt agreement between law enforcement, politicians, and vice industries—is crumbling. Strip clubs, gambling dens, and backroom deals fueled an empire along 1st Avenue, but reformers and investigative journalists are closing in. As ambition, rebellion, and exploitation collide, the city’s underbelly is thrust into the spotlight. (Dance, burlesque, adults only.)

What holds us together — love, loyalty, or something far more fragile? In Harold Pinter’s masterful play, the ordinary rhythms of human connection slowly unravel into something quietly devastating. Told in reverse — from the painful collapse of a relationship back to its delicate beginnings — Betrayal offers a piercing look at loneliness, memory, and the small, almost imperceptible moments that lead to rupture. In Pinter’s world, everything betrays everything.

Nick and Nigel Bottom are brothers in England during the Renaissance. It’s a glorious time for the arts, and they lead a wildly successful acting troupe…or, at least, they could be wildly successful, (probably…maybe), if a certain rockstar playwright would just stop publishing hit play after hit play! How, exactly, does one get out from under the shadow of the great William Shakespeare?? If you’re Nick, the answer is to pay a cut-rate soothsayer to figure out what The Next Big Thing in Theatre is going to be…so you can beat Shakespeare at his own game!
