Deb and I are going to see Fire on the Mountain at the Seattle Rep tonight.

Quoted: From the acclaimed creators of It Ain't Nothin' But the Blues comes a poignant, passionate musical about the lives of coal miners in the Appalachian Mountains.

Really good play at the Rep. Deb and I went last week. Only two actors; both giving very powerful performances.

Ends March 4th.

Quoted: Lewis is a sleepless mathematics professor, restless during a night of personal and professional crisis. He has inadvertently conjured his ancestors. As four generations prod him with their disquieting stories of slavery, Black Power, and academia, he begins to understand what it means to be black, both then and now.

Good show tonight. Only 4 actors - the story of a priest and suspicions that he has had inappropriate contact with boys at the church school. Well worth seeing. The power struggle between the nun and the priest very instense.

Quoted: This intense and personal power struggle between Sister Aloysius and Father Flynn ultimately calls into question both faith and justice in the shadows of this cloistered institution.
