A invitation from solo performer Dawson Nichols to attend his show, VIRTUAL SOLITAIRE:Hello all. I wanted you to know that I will be performing my play, Virtual Solitaire, starting next Friday. There are only 4 performances in Seattle before I take the show up to Bellingham. The performances will be at North Seattle Community College and will all be pay-what-you-can with all proceeds going to student scholarships.
This is an original work which has toured across the US, Canada, and Australia, winning awards at a number of international theater festivals. I do hope you’ll come. I know it’s a little crass, but in case it’ll help convince you to come, I include sample press beneath the graphic, below. For maps and directions to the theater, please see http://www.northseattle.edu/maps/.
4 Performances Only!
April 4, 5, 11, and 12 @ 7:30 pm
