ArtsUW Roundup: Opening weekend of Between Bodies, Incident at Vichy, and more!
This week in the arts, attend UW School of Drama’s season opener, see several musical performances, and attend a exhibition opening.
Incident at Vichy
October 24 to November 4 | Floyd and Delores Jones Playhouse
UW School of Drama’s season opener is a production that the New York Times considered “one of the most important plays of our time” in 1964. The questions at the heart of this story—about evil, complicity, self-preservation, and the death of human decency—are perhaps more resonant now than at any time since that first production. Guest Director Kelly Kitchens, who is well-known to local audiences for her work at Seattle Shakespeare Company and Seattle Public Theater, among others, directs an all-male cast.

St. Lawrence String Quartet
October 25, 7:30 PM | Katharyn Alvord Gerlich Theater
“Modern…dramatic…superb…wickedly attentive…with a hint of rock ‘n roll energy…” are just a few ways critics describe the musical phenomenon that is the St Lawrence String Quartet. Through the SLSQ’s Discovery presentation, you will experience an informed, enthusiastic and entertaining breakdown of a Haydn quartet filled with historical and musical guidance.
$10 tickets for UW students when you show your Husky ID in advance at the ArtsUW Ticket Office or on the night of the show at the Box Office at Meany Hall | More Info
