Listen to selections from oral histories gathered by Harbor area students come to life through readings and narrator panels. Through these voices we will explore what draws us to this place, what helps us persevere during times of struggle, and what cultivates our sense of belonging to the area known as “The Harbor.
Presented by The Evergreen State College faculty member Stephen Buxbaum, “Voices from the Harbor” is possible because of a grant from Humanities Washington to The Evergreen State College Foundation.
At this meeting we’ll be learning about all things fishy and froggy in the Chehalis Basin. We’ll hear an update from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife on the Aquatic Species Restoration Plan being developed for the Chehalis Basin, and opportunities for citizen engagement. We’ll also hear from WDFW’s “Citizen Science” program coordinator about iNaturalist technology. iNaturalist is a tool citizens can use to document wildlife sightings and track changes over time – in effect, become “citizen scientists.” The tool is currently being tested out for amphibian monitoring in King County. Would you like to see it in use in the Chehalis?
Anyone with an interest in the Chehalis Basin is welcome to come to this event.
The whole world has turned completely upside-down, and in the aftermath, Hannah finds herself without a job, health insurance, separated from her husband and daughter, and in need of therapy. When all funding for the arts is cut off, Hannah is given the option of doing standup comedy in an empty theatre for her psychotherapy. She returns to court to get her rights back. But is she the plaintiff or the defendant?

LOVE LETTERS
Written by A. R. Gurney
Directed by Ben Hohman
Reader’s Theatre for all ages.
Andrew Makepeace Ladd III and Melissa Gardner, both born to wealth and position, are childhood friends whose lifelong correspondence begins with birthday party thank you notes and summer camp postcards. Romantically attached, they continue to exchange letters through the boarding school and college years, where Andy goes on to excel at Yale and law school, while Melissa flunks out of a series of “good schools.” While Andy if off at war, Melissa marries, but her attachment to Andy remains strong and she continues to keep in touch as he marries, becomes a successful attorney, gets involved in politics and eventually is elected to the U.S. Senate. Meanwhile, her marriage in tatters, Melissa dabbles in art and gigolos, drinks more than she should and becomes estranged from her children. Eventually she and Andy do become involved in a brief affair, but it is too late for both of them. However, Andy’s last letter, written to her mother after Melissa’s untimely death, makes it eloquently clear how much they really meant and gave to each other over the years; physically apart, perhaps, but spiritually as close as only true lovers can be.
Performance dates: Every Friday and Saturday evening with curtain time at 7:30. Each weekend features a different cast.
Tickets are $15.00 and are available online at:
