This Wednesday was a theater double-header with interviews and performances by members from Spokane Civic Theatre and Stage Left Theater, which both have shows opening this Friday, October 16th.

Spokane Civic Theatre will open their fall production of Evil Dead: The Musical on Friday, October 16th at 7:30pm in the Studio Theatre (the basement venue, as opposed to the Main Stage). Verne interviewed Troy Nickerson (director/choreographer), Tanya Barton (playing Annie), and Martin Sanks (playing Ash), but there was also a performance of a couple selections from the show by Whitney Husky (playing Cheryl), Talena Kelln (playing Linda), and Alex Edmonds (playing Scott), accompanied by music director Chris Beazer.
