InD Theatre offers Lee Blessing’s A Walk in the Woods at BIMA April 18-28 (WU-492)

Can a political divide be crossed? John Ellis and Joel Underwood will play two arms negotiators in InD theatre’s production of Lee Blessing’s A Walk in the Woods. 7 pm at BIMA on Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays, April 18 – 28.

Set during the Cold War, the show examines the growing relationship of two patriots on opposing sides. This lighthearted drama tackles the question that still troubles us today: can we develop understanding despite our differing opinions?

Listen here as BCB host Justin Lynn talks with John and Joel about the show’s real life inspirations, about working with director Ken Michaels, and how this 31-year-old piece still has relevance today.

This show will also play at Freehold in Seattle May 2-5. To reserve your free tickets for either venue, or to learn more about this surprisingly humorous play, visit indtheatre.org.

Land Acknowledgment

“Every part of this soil is sacred in the estimation of my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove, has been hallowed by some sad or happy event in days long vanished.” – Chief Seattle 1854

We would like to begin by acknowledging that the land on which we gather is within the ancestral territory of the suq̀ʷabš “People of Clear Salt Water” (Suquamish People). Expert fisherman, canoe builders and basket weavers, the suq̀ʷabš live in harmony with the lands and waterways along Washington’s Central Salish Sea as they have for thousands of years. Here, the suq̀ʷabš live and protect the land and waters of their ancestors.
