And speaking of next year, just a few of the events coming to the Washington Center next season are (in approximate chronological order...and I hope that I'm not giving away any Center secrets by posting these!
):
Melissa Manchester
The Full Monty!!
Kate Clinton!
Bella Fleck and someone else on a duo tour
David Amram (I'd never heard of him, but he's supposed to be an important music person)
Seattle Symphony
The Acting Company's
Three Musketeersa national tour of
Oklahoma and
two performances of
Cats!
and many more things that I couldn't write down in time.
I've never seen
Cats live. I will probably be asked to work backstage, the load-in and load-out. If I do, I'll get paid (yea!) but I won't get to actually
see the show. When I work backstage, there is almost never any chance to see anything that happens on stage, so I'm torn! Of course, there is always the possibility of not being asked to work backstage, but then I won't get paid...oh what to do?!?!
