Richard Hugo House, March 10 - 26, 2005: ReAct Theatre, Seattle's only Multi-ethnic Philanthropic Theatre Company opens its 12th season with the Seattle professional premiere of THE SHAPE OF THINGS, the recent London, Off-Broadway and cinematic masterpiece by acclaimed writer/director Neil LaBute, who has also written The Distance from Here, Fat Pig, Autobahn, Bash and more.
How far would you go for Art? How far would you go for Love? LaBute examines these questions with this thought-provoking dark comedy, set at a small midwestern college. A radical Art student becomes the catalyst that shakes up the lives of a trio of friends. Don't miss this intriguing exploration of modern love, jealously, manipulation and...the shape of things.
THE SHAPE OF THINGS will play Thursday nights at 7:30pm, Friday nights at 8:00pm and Saturday afternoons and evenings at 2:00pm and at 8:00pm. All performances will be held at The Richard Hugo House, located at 1634 Eleventh Avenue, at the corner of 11th and Olive on Seattle's Capitol Hill. Free parking is available throughout the neighborhood or in the Richard Hugo House Parking Lot located behind the building.
