Every year the holiday season brings out some of our favorite traditions in song and story, and this one is no different. This year however the Burien Actors Theatre’s, The Christmas Carol Rag (written by Norman Allen and musical arrangements by Howard Breitbart), presents a show that is as familiar as tradition, but with a slightly different spin on the Charles Dickens classic.

Ideas for Mother's Day

This weekend, take your mother out to a local performing arts event…or two or three.

Friday evening, KidSounds, YouthSounds, and TeenSounds present "Bring on Broadway!" the spring concert for the combined young people choruses of Northwest Associated Arts. The salute to Boardway musicals takes place at the Highline Performing Arts Center, and starts at 7:00pm.

BLT's "Tommy" opens this weekend.

Tomorrow is opening night of Burien Little Theatre's production of "The Who's Tommy," the musical work written by Pete Townsend which first appeared as a Who album in 1969 and was expanded, seven years later, into a film by Ken Russell. "Tommy" was first in the lineage of "rock operas," and like Pink Floyd's "The Wall," it also addresses themes of British post-war disillusionment, staged in a hallucinatory fearful post-war Britain where young boys are not safe from abuse from authority figures.
