Who doesn’t love free stuff?
And, while normally you have to shell out some Hamiltons to see shows/events at Seattle Theatre Group’s gorgeous PARAMOUNT THEATRE on Pine Street at the foot of Capitol Hill heading downtown, this Saturday, June 23rd, you have a FREE opportunity to party at the venue in celebration of two things:
Seattle LGBTQ Pride Weekend
and
The Paramount’s 90th Anniversay
There’s also a “sold out” free concert that same night with beloved local band DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE but the non-ticketed street party will feature LGBTQ performers and all sorts of freebies (ice cream, if you get there early enough; posters). It’s an evening event from 5pm to 8pm on 9th Avenue between Pike and Pine Street.
Some more skinny!

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 10th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
