Northwest Film Forum

Join us for a performance exposition written and directed by Marya Sea Kaminski. Inspired by the transformation of Seattle’s Pike-Pine corridor and developed from live interviews with Seattle politicians, activists, developers, children, comedians and residents at large, this event brings performance, video, song, dance and absurd fantasy together to sketch a picture of our evolving urban landscape and the places we call home. The history of our city is explored among dreams of modern urban living, notices of proposed land use, shouts of “location, location, location,” condominiums and the crashing economy. Enjoy the stories that collect in the corners.

Join us after the opening night performance (Thursday, May 13) for a special wine reception.  Toast the performers and help us close out the first season of Live at the Film Forum.
