Honky Tonk!
June 26th – July 26th, 2009 at the Market Theater in historic Pike Place Market
Country western music and blue collar culture slam headfirst into improv for this brand new, original, improvised play created by Tim Tracey, and starring a cast of Seattle's best musical improvisers.
Each performance is like its own country music song, complete with beer guzzling, heart ache, fighting, and friendship. The characters will create meaningful stories, that even city dwellers can relate too, with a few emotion inspired, improvised songs thrown in for good measure. This ain't no musical – but sometimes a cowboy's gotta croon. Think Hank Williams and Waylon Jennings, on a couple of barstools in Enumclaw, slamming back whiskey and telling tales.
Fueled by audience suggestions, and completely improvised, no performance of Honky Tonk can possibly be the same. So pull on those Wranglers and cowboy boots, because this dark, beer soaked, dramatic comedy awaits you at the Market Theater in the historic Pike Place Market.
Honky Tonk Players: Derek Kavan, Rebecca Kavan, Chelsea Binta, Jana Healy, Kristen Rau, Michael Bils, Jay Hitt, Susie Simpkins & Elicia Wickstead, Brandon Felker, Molly Arkin of Blood Squad.
Musical Direction by Ron Hippe
