Each spring, hundreds of thousands of shorebirds stop to rest and feed in Grays Harbor estuary on their migration northward. Coming from as far south as Argentina, these Arctic-bound shorebirds are among the world’s greatest migrants. Some birds travel more than 15,000 miles round trip! Tens of thousands of shorebirds feed on the open mudflats in the estuary. This concentration of birds offers people a great chance to view a number of shorebird species, and with luck, to see the birds fly together in beautiful formation while trying to escape the fastest creature on earth, the Peregrine Falcon.

Sixty years ago, Russian actor Yul Brynner performed the signature role of his career so well that he became only the eighth actor in history to win the movies’ Academy Award and Broadway’s Tony Award for the same role. “The King and I” comes to Hoquiam’s historic 7th Street Theatre, at 7:30 pm Saturday and 2 pm Sunday, May 7-8.
Brynner was an instant hit when he began playing King Mongkut of Siam on Broadway in 1951, in the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical. Deborah Kerr played Anna Leonowens in the tale that was loosely based on the true story of the woman who was invited to teach English to the children of the Siamese king in the mid-nineteenth century. The play originally ran for 1,246 performances. In all, Brynner delivered 4,525 performances as the King.
In addition to Brynner’s Oscar, the 1956 film won for set decoration, costuming, sound and music. The Broadway production was famously lavish, and the movie version was not to be outdone, costing more than 10 times the original stage production and featuring 40 sets.
Doors open at 7:00 p.m. for the 7:30 p.m. showings. Tickets are $5 and will be available at the door. Advance tickets are available at Harbor Drug in Hoquiam and City Drug in Aberdeen, and at www.brownpapertickets.com. For more information call 360-537-7400 or check the website, www.7thstreettheatre.com.
