Seattle Playwrights Salon kicks off a year of parity (plays by women!) by presenting Unhinged, by Seattle-based playwright, Pamela Hobart Carter at the Conservatory, 5813 South, Seattle, 98108. Admission is free! Beer, wine, cider, and food available for purchase before and after the show, and during intermission.

Forward Flux's hosts another double feature, currently performing at West of Lenin. Las Mariposas Y Los Muertos is one big middle finger to Pitchfork and Vampire Weekend. Rolled into a story of three jaded musicians striving for more authenticity in the cultural milieu, here lies a call to arms concerning cultural appropriate and stereotyping in modern music. One band's dance with stardom forces the three to negotiate racial tension, sibling rivalries, and sacrificing authenticity for fame. Directed by Pilar O'Connell, this is a play that manages to have it both ways: critiquing and understanding millennial bands' concerns.

Forward Flux Productions is thrilled to share cast and creative team information for the upcoming Double Feature, playing September 19 - October 7 at West of Lenin in Fremont (203 N 36th St, Seattle, WA 98103)! This is the third year in a row that the company will present two new plays in the same space on the same night, back to back.

Retired OSI special agent Maxine Decker returns in 'The Tomb,' her most dangerous mission to date: prevent the assassination of a Supreme Court justice. After capturing the world's most wanted drug lord, Maxine comes across a photo of an object recently found in the Colorado River, an object tied to a WWII plot to send a submarine up the Colorado and destroy the Hoover Dam. Identifying the object as an earthquake machine based on the turn-of-the-century design of Nikola Tesla, Max soon becomes the target of two groups: the designer of a modern version of the device and the Mexican cartel bent on revenge for the killing of their leader. Her mission becomes critical when she discovers that the lives of all nine justices, and perhaps millions of others, are at risk. 'The Tomb' is available in both print and ebook formats.
