Formed in April 2022, the Unsubdued Theatre Collective is a group of actors, playwrights, directors, and other theatrical artists with the objective of dismantling hierarchical structures in traditional theaters. Members are committed to fostering a safe environment for artists whose voices are not bolstered by mainstream theatre to create and perform new works. By putting the community at the center of the process, the collective is reevaluating the way a play is made in order to form a bolder vision for a revolutionary stage.

Beginning in 2018, Little Lemon Productions (LLP), started by Adaryn Healy and Brody Buck, worked to create a safe, creative space for students by students. Our first project showed our student community that we have the ability and power to create meaningful, fun, and beautiful art together. LLP allows students from all schooling and performing backgrounds to learn and grow together. By creating this space, we can ensure all students have an opportunity to shine in many different ways, such as; Directing, Stage Management, Light and Sound work, Set Design, Music Direction, Pit Orchestra Direction and Membership, and many, many more. Adaryn and Brody began this company with the hope that students from all the surrounding areas could have access to theater that is inclusive and empowering. As time has gone on, LLP has continued to expand its team and its student outreach; it regularly has student participants from 3 different school districts and seven different high schools.

When Jack Met Jill
2023-01-15 13:00 - 14:00, 2023-01-14 20:00 - 21:00, 2023-01-13 20:00 - 21:00, 2023-01-12 20:00 - 21:00 | Lucas Hicks Auditorium
BELLINGHAM THEATRE GUILD presents Adam Szymkowicz’s wildly imaginative post-modern life story of fable-famous Jack and Jill (post-bucket and out of chronology!) as their first production on the Lucas Hicks stage.
12/20/2022- Bellingham WA – The Bellingham Theatre Guild presents When Jack Met Jill by Adam Szymkowicz, their official entry to the Kaleidoscope State Theatre Festival, for its premiere local performances at the New Prospect Theatre on January 12-15, 2023. Directed by Suzanne Mackay and a cast of fabulous local actors, WHEN JACK MET JILL follows the mostly-post-bucket lives of the famous couple throughout time and the ages as they struggle with the definitions of their relationship to each other. This goofy adult travail, like most of Szymkowicz’s work, mixes light and dark with a contemporary wariness of either. Evening performances are at 8pm, and the matinee on the 15th starts at 1pm, tickets are $15.
The Kaleidoscope Festival, which takes place February 9-12, 2023 in Tacoma, is the Washington State leg of the AACTFest’23 National One-Act Play Competition. When Jack Met Jill will be the Bellingham Theatre Guild’s sixth play entered into the adjudicated community theater competition over the years, with previous shows earning awards at the State, Regional and National levels. Plays are limited to one hour with a ten-minute set-up/take-down time, and the talented actors (David Bolden, Kris Erickson, Audrey Henderson, Karl Ritter-Smith) and designers (Chris Coombs, Keefe Healy) get one performance to prove they deserve to move forward to Regional, and, hopefully, National stages. This time, Bellingham Theatre Guild is presenting their entry for local consumption at the New Prospect Theatre cuz what’s the point of local theatre without sharing locally with locals? Exactly! Come on down to the New Prospect Theatre, cheer us on and support two theaters with one show!
“WHEN JACK MET JILL is produced by special arrangement with THE GERSH AGENCY, 41 Madison Avenue, 29th Floor, New York NY 10010
The Bellingham Theatre Guild is a volunteer theater that has been serving the Whatcom County community since 1927. More information about BTG can be found at www.bellinghamtheatreguild.com.

Peter Ali - Cancelled due to illness - Traesti and Alexandra have stepped up to perform
2023-01-08 14:00 - 15:30 | Ethos West Stage
Unfortunately, Peter Ali has to cancel this event due to sickness. Traesti and Alexandra have stepped up to perform.
Bellingham locals Traesti and Alexandra (fka The Living Arrows) perform as the acoustic duo Traesti Darling. Their music, influenced by folk, jazz, and pop, defies genre and captivates audiences of all ages.
Traesti Darling brings lyrical journeys to life with enchanting harmonies and toe-tapping rhythms that tend to cause listeners to dance, sing, laugh, and cry. The weaving of their voices has been compared to Simon and Garfunkel, but their poetry has a soul-enlivening quality entirely its own.
Their original songs are carried by catchy melodies, emotional depth, and a unique flair that will keep your ears piqued, your heart open, and your soul eager for more.
