"Something Rotten" is something special!

Two brothers set out to write the world’s first musical in this hilarious mash-up of sixteenth-century Shakespeare and twenty-first-century Broadway.

Set in the 1590s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of Shakespeare, the Renaissance rock star known as “The Bard.” When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz.

Something Rotten runs September 8-24, with shows at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, with 2 p.m. matinees on Sundays. Tickets are $25 for adults, $20 for seniors/students/military. Buy tickets online, over the phone at (360) 322-7402, or at the box office Tuesday-Saturday from 2 to 6 p.m.
