Pork Filled Players to return with more great performances
Pork Filled Players to return with more great performances

Go East Young Ham
Richard Hugo House
Closed November 10th

The skit about a 'truckstop waitress' squaring off with a 'geisha' was definitely worth going by myself to see. The recently closed laugh-fest, 'Go East, Young Ham', put on by one of my favorite local comedy troupes, Pork Filled Players, was another great production.

Other skits included a 'past life society, peopled by the likes of Jesse James, Genghis Khan, who had to decide if a new member -- a cybergeek who had caused political havoc -- could join or not, and a guilt tripping Korean couple who made an art out of making their daughter tow the line. And, in spite of my permanent down mood of late, I laughed so hard I nearly fell out of my chair. But, don't despair if you missed all of that fun and silliness. The spunky and prolific group is going to be a part of 'Insatiable', the first Asian-American Playwrights Festival, this Saturday, at the Northwest Actors Studio. They also have another show, this time a full play, coming up in March, so stay tuned.

For tickets and information about the Playwrights Festival, visit www.sis-productions.org or call 206-323-9443. I'm sure you won't be disappointed, and these guys will warm you up for sure.
