Did you come see Paul's show? Give us your thoughts on the performance, the content, or seeing an evening length piece down in the Studio Theater at long last again.

Two previews are out this morning describing Paul Budraitis' (IN)STABILITY:

OtB will do a waiting list for each sold out night. To get on the waiting list, call or stop by the box office (206.217.9888) on the day of the performance you wish to attend. You can be on the waiting list for an available chair seat ($20) and/or also be on the cushion seat ($12) waiting list. The cushions are placed on the floor in front of the first row. Cushion seats will be sold only if every chair seat is occupied. Bring cash! All waiting list tickets for this show will be cash only.

Getting ready for (IN)STABILITY this weekend? Here are a few quick things to know about Paul Budraitis:

Flavorwire interviewed OtB alumni Reggie Watts about his ongoings this past year the Mayan 2012 prophecy and more!  Read the text and watch the footage of the interactive interview here.

Devotion, coming to OtB Mar 10 - 13, recently opened at NYC's The Kitchen to great critical praise. Check out the reviews that have come out so far:

[Washington Ensemble Theatre's Noah Benezra sent us a blog AND posted a blog conversation with another ensemble member on the WET blog. Read that conversation here!]

Here's a sampling of the comments I received in my inbox today:

"Thank you guys for making this happen! It was a fantastic performance and I'm going to see it again. I love everything, music, band actors, such an emotionally charged experience...and I danced while watching them and wanted them to keep playing all night long so I can dance all night long. I think dancing with these guys is the best way to see them :)

Thank you again for bringing them to Seattle!

Unforgettable experience!"

"Really really really fabulous and incredible."

The performances I have LOVED over the years have always been very precisely constructed, with results that can only be achieved with a great deal of care and an understanding of both the piece and what you’re doing with the performance... And they have often haunted me, with needling little questions about what kind of people we are, and how we treat one another, and how we live with that. I’m SO pleased to include Solitude in that little club of the wonderful and terrible. 

The SunBreak's Michael Baker just posted his take on In the Solitude of Cotton Fields:

"If it helps, imagine the Blues Brothers transplanted into an Eastern European punk concert, and improvising a slam-poetry show out of a few of Roland Barthes' essays. The curtain goes up on a stage filled with dry ice fog, lights shining up, with two men in black suits with skinny black ties fronting a real, and very talented band (The Natural Born Chillers, throwing out rock, techno, and ambiant with aplomb)."
