Play for Summer

My ACT Theatre program came today and look what's going to be playing in Seattle this summer. It sounds terrific--


First Class by David Wagoner, July 27 - August 26

You become the students of the greatest teacher you never had in David Wagoner's one-man show based on fellow Northwest poet and legend Theodore Roethke. John Aylward (a veteran of the Seattle stage, as well as The West Wing and ER) gives a bravura performance as the famously gifted and famously hell-raising Roethke in this voyage into the passionate heart — and art — of a genius.
