Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
2025-10-09 19:30 - 21:30, 2025-10-12 19:30 - 21:30
“Jeffrey Hatcher’s Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde twists Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic horror story into something even darker and more unsettling. In fog-drenched London, the brilliant Dr. Henry Jekyll unleashes his dark alter ego, Edward Hyde, a creature of violence, lust, possession, and desire who threatens to consume Henry’s psyche entirely.
In this production, Edward Hyde is never quite what you expect. How he .. or she .. appears – who they become – and how – therein remains a secret you’ll have to experience for yourself. Alongside Jekyll’s struggle, we meet friends, rivals, and innocents whose lives are forever altered by his dangerous experiment, including loyal companions, suspicious colleagues, and a young woman who discovers the true cost of his obsession. Step into the shadows, Hyde is waiting.
TRIGGER WARNINGS:
blood, themes of violence, murder, mentioning of rape – mental illnesses – sexual assault – addiction – murder, stalking, abduction, sexually suggestive language, sexually suggestive content, death/dying.
CONTENT WARNINGS:
loud noises such as whistles & screaming/yelling, sudden light shift for scene changes (no strobes)”
General tickets are $15 per person, Each show has 4 VIP tickets for $25 (includes premium seating, snacks, and a beverage provided by Unorthodox)

Jeffrey Martin with Anna Tivel
2025-10-10 19:30 - 21:30
Two fabulous songwriters playing in a listeners venue. Not to be missed!
Portland, Oregon’s Jeffrey Martin is a minister’s son who can build a house with his bare hands and holds a master’s degree in English. He worked his way through school as a carpenter, then, following graduation, spent four years teaching high school.
It was during that time that his career as a songwriter came into bloom. Struggling to strike a balance between his increasingly rigorous Northwest/West Coast touring and his efforts to get teenagers to love words as much as he did, Martin found himself in the tricky position of having to choose between his two passions.
Much to the delight of his fans, music won the day. Now, with four intensely lyric-driven albums under his belt, three of which were released on the Portland indie-label, Fluff & Gravy Records, Martin has developed a loyal and growing audience, both domestically and abroad.
Anna Tivel, raised in La Conner, is a Portland, Oregon-based, internationally touring songwriter who is forever drawn to the quiet stories of ordinary life. The characters and imagery that populate her writing are full of breath and vivid color. With six full-length albums out and a seventh on the way, Anna has been likened to a short story writer and praised by NPR, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and others for her keen observations of the human condition. In fact, Ann Powers of NPR Music had this to say, “Anna Tivel is just one of my absolute favorite living songwriters. Her writing on [Outsiders] is at the same level as Paul Simon when he wrote ‘The Boxer’ and ‘American Tune.'”

An Evening with Jefrey Foucault
2025-10-28 20:00 - 22:00
In two decades on the road Jeffrey Foucault has become one of the most distinctive voices in American music refining a sound instantly recognizable for its simplicity and emotional power. With a string of critically acclaimed studio albums– “Stark, literate songs that are as wide open as the landscape of his native Midwest” (The New Yorker), “Beat-up troubadour folk whittled to dolorous perfection”(Uncut), “Songwriting Brilliance,” (Irish Times) he’s built a brick-and-mortar international touring career and a devoted following, one that includes luminaries like Van Dyke Parks, Greil Marcus, and Don Henley.
In September of 2024 Jeffrey Foucault released THE UNIVERSAL FIRE (Fluff & Gravy, 9/6/24), his first album of entirely new material since 2018. A series of high-voltage performances cut live in one room, the album is both a working wake (Foucault lost his best friend and drummer Billy Conway to cancer in 2021) and a meditation on the nature of beauty, artifact, and loss.

Tickets $30 Advance / $35 Day of: An Evening with Jefrey Foucault
