SEATTLITES -- DON'T MISS THIS
Run, don't walk, to the Aha! theater in Belltown to see Dawson
Nichols's incredible new one-man show VIRTUAL SOLITAIRE. Nichols, whose
previous play Three Descents of Darwin received high critical acclaim,
operates on so many levels in VIRTUAL SOLITAIRE that the very
distinction between levels becomes blurred. Nichols, by the way, wrote
his Masters thesis on memes.
The futuristic story centers on Nathan, a virtual-reality junkie hired
to calibrate a new game making use of a dangerous new technology that
feeds back the player's life experience into the game scenario. As
Nathan meme-surfs through an astounding cabaret of characters,
including the two sinister technicians controlling the game itself, we
begin to wonder what, if anything, there is about a human being other
than these memetically engineered acts we play.
The Aha! theater regretfully closes, along with the show, in two weeks,
so go see it now! It plays Thursday through Sunday through June 29, and
at $10 is the theater bargain of the year.
