Former firebrand radical Lucinda Celeste (Macall Gordon) is on the lam, which is like playing possum, in a primitive log cabin deep in the woods. Her devoted protector and supporter and ever hopeful to-be lover, Rex Eaglejeep (Asa Sholdez) is convinced that the State has revived the search for Lucinda. Lucinda is much less worried. Note to readers: it’s not paranoia if they are out to get you.

2017 Seattle Fringe Festival: Cuddling with Strippers

Nik Doner presented his performance of a genre I would call comedy-memoir to a packed Black Box Theatre crowd this Saturday.

This show also featured video projection of some of Nik’s home movies and a stretch of a car crash video game as he narrated one particular drunken driving experience.
