Congratulations to Spokane Civic Theatre and the cast & crew of Assassins! The cut production of the Stephen Sondheim musical was the winner at Washington state's Kaleidoscope 2007 competition last weekend.
This is a bit of a triumphant return -- Spokane Civic Theatre won the state competition almost every time in the 1990s. Troy Nickerson, director of Assassins, took Best in Nation at the 1999 competition (not to mention tying for "Best Actor" in the nation with co-star Thomas Heppler).
The next step is the regional competition. The Region IX AACTFest takes place in Tacoma March 30 & 31. It will compete against the winners from Alaska, Oregon, and Idaho.
Yes, that's Idaho, as in Forever Plaid from Lake City Playhouse. Two of the actors in that show, Kent Kimball and Mike Hynes, are veterans of the Civic stage. Talk about friendly competition!
