Planting work party at Whilamut Natural Area Butterfly Meadow, The Seagull Opens Friday, Nov. 10 at the Lord Leebrick Theatre. Anton Chehov was a genius, no? And Tom Stoppard is a genius too. Everything he touches, like the script for 1998’s Shakespeare in Love, turns to gold. So why wouldn’t an already-golden play, Chekhov’s The Seagull, go, well, platinum in Stoppard’s translation? There’s desire, affection, frustra- tion, humor, pathos … and a seagull. From Russia, by way of England, with love. Show dates are Nov. 10-11, 16-19, 24-26 & 30 and Dec. 1-2. Call 465-1506 for tickets. Cherry Poppin’ Daddies Rock ‘N’ Roll Soldiers Marcus Eaton Schoolyard Heroes · Grynch The King of the United States Opens Thursday, Nov. 9 at the OSU Theatre. “We want a king, a king we can trust” sings the cast at the opening of Jean-Claude van Italllie’s “play with music.” And now that we have a heredi- tary empire in the U.S., even though those pesky activist judges try to say we don’t, the play is more relevant than ever. Show dates are Nov. 9-11 and 16-18. Call 737-2853 for tickets.
