One of the many wonderful things about living in downtown Kirkland is proximity to the Kirkland Performance Center.
We attended Celtic Nights with Flat Sammy (sent to us by one of our granddaughters)
Several weeks later we took a friend to "Imagination Theater." "Mystery, drama, and laughter abound in America's leading radio drama series regularly featuring Private Detective Harry Nile and tales of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Recorded live at KPC [Kirkland Performance Center], America's leading radio drama series is heard from coast to coast on over 50 radio stations in North America, including KIXI in Seattle." KPC website
Jim French, front, has written, directed, and produced radio dramas since 1965
We enjoy attending these recording sessions. You watch the sound effects people (set up at the left end of this photo). The actors have to repeat their lines if they mess up. It's fun to watch the interaction of the actors, especially when they set each other off & they have to regain their composure. We watched the recording of one episode of "The Adventures of Harry Nile." 4 actors were in that performance.
In the photo above, these men record a story from "The Tales of Sherlock Holmes." The man on the right plays Sherlock and the one in the tan sweater is Dr. Watson. The two men on the left provide the sound effects.
We look forward to walking down the street to attend more great performances.
