Get Saucy With Taylor Mac This Week

There are PLENTY of tickets available (sadly, in my opinion) to be a part of the majesty that is TAYLOR MAC in concert for Thursday and Friday night’s performances of the holiday show, HOLIDAY SAUCE happening at The Moore Theatre in downtown Seattle.

For those of you unaware, the gender/genre bending performance artist is…well, a bit of everything. A singer, a performance artist, a playwright that has been nominated for Tony Awards and Pulitzer Prizes, but most of all…A PROVOCATEUR!!!

This is a joint effort, locally, from On The Boards and Seattle Theatre Group and there are many, many tickets still available…go HERE to snag one or…just show up!!!

More on the divine Taylor Mac:

Christmas as calamity – 2017 MacArthur Fellow and Pulitzer Prize finalist Taylor Mac takes on the holidays to celebrate the season in all of its dysfunction. For this new production, Taylor Mac is joined by longtime collaborators, designer Machine Dazzle, Music Director Matt Ray, and a spectacular band to reframe the songs you love and the holidays you hate.
