Poking antic fun at the more ridiculous aspects of “show biz” and the corny thrillers of Hollywood’s heyday, the play is a non-stop barrage of laughter as those assembled (or at least who aren’t killed off) untangle the mystery of the Stage Door Slasher. Rated a very mild PG. 7:30 pm: Tickets $5 with reservations; call 206-252-8834; tickets $10 at the door
