A Spooky Cultural Exchange

The intersection of creativity and tradition has long added a mystical dimension to theatre, as well as generating a wealth of beliefs and superstitions. From the ancient Greek amphitheaters to the bustling Broadway stages of today, times have changed, but what hasn’t changed is that actors and actresses have always observed a variety of customs designed to ward off bad luck and seek inspiration.

As it turns out, the decision to make theater seats red isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s steeped in history, practicality, and even a bit of psychology.

October 2nd-8th, 2024

This week, the Hobgoblin finds out What The Constitution Means to Me, while at the Madnani, it's almost time for the War of the Roses, and somewhere, Greg is mixing up fake blood for Frosty Fest!

This image appears to depict a set design for a stage production. The backdrop is styled as a veterans' hall with the banner reading "American Legion Post 10, Wenatchee, Washington." Several framed photographs of military figures are arranged on the wall, and there are U.S. and Washington state flags on display. A wooden podium with the U.S. Legion emblem stands prominently in the foreground, with two empty chairs placed on either side, creating a formal, institutional atmosphere. The setup suggests that this scene could be part of a performance involving themes related to veterans, American history, or constitutional rights.
