Custom Made Play Project

The CMPP artistic team met again Saturday night, so that Emily could view the actors in their natural habitat (Rebecca's living room - drinking wine and eating cheese.) This play is going to rock.

It's time for the Gregory Awards! The People's Choice nomination is an opportunity for the community (artists, audiences, etc.) to add people to the ballot that they feel were left off the original list of nominees - so if you saw any theater this year, take a second to submit your vote. The current list of nominees can be found on the gregoryawards.org website. If you are so inclined, feel free to nominate Ballard House Duet and/or the artists involved in the project. That would be delightful. Carry on and tally ho!

Shape the ballot of the 2013 Gregory Awards! The top choices will be added as a "People's Choice" nominee on the 2013 Gregory Awards ballot! (Recipients determined in September by Theatre Puget Sound members) See current nominees here

Please support LaRae Lobdell who took beautiful, amazing publicity shots for Ballard House Duet. She has spent 2012 and 2103 on a photography project that features countless Seattle theater artists, which is culminating in an exhibit at ACT Theatre. Congratulations LaRae and thank you for shining a spotlight on our community!

“Celebration!” will be a large-scale 6-month exhibit of approximately 200 prints displayed over 3 floors of the historic ACT Theatre in downtown Seattle.

It’s hard for me to express how gratifying it is to see a fellow theatre artist so effectively articulate why he is joining the locally grown theatre movement.
