The Young Shakespeare Workshop reminded me to check out the Greenstage Shakespeare performances. I see they’re deviating from Strictly Shakespeare with a preformance of the Three Musketeers in Lincoln Park today at 3pm.

Yes, the Three Musketeers performance is in our calendar, which ALWAYS has more stuff than we can get in the highlight list – we included it in yesterday’s highlight list (it was at Camp Long on Saturday). We put all the GreenStage local shows in our calendar weeks ago. Also next Friday at Lincoln Park.

We should have fireworks display every Sat nite during Summer to celebrate West Seattle Independence Day!!Bigger than the Lake Union one since the Island of West Seattle is a very rich area.
