An Oct. 23 arson hurt sales of Taproot Theatre's Dec. 1 showing of "It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play," a benefit for Ballard NW Senior Center.
The Ballard NW Senior Center needs the help of neighborhood theater-lovers.
The Dec. 1 showing of Taproot Theatre's "It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play," was meant to be a fundraiser for the senior center. But, after an Oct. 23 arson damaged Taproot, it was unclear if the show would go on.
Ticket sales for the show stopped, and now the senior center needs to sell 100 tickets in the next few days, Sue Allegra at the Ballard Chamber of Commerce said in an email.
"It's a Wonderful Life" is taking place at Stage One Theater at North Seattle Community College. Tickets are $25 for the 7:30 p.m. show or $35 for the show and a 6 p.m. wine reception.
"There's great parking at NSCC, a wonderful cast, an excellent way to spread good cheer and help out a wonderful Ballard institution as well," Allegra said.
Tickets for the Dec. 1 fundraiser show are available only at Ballard NW Senior Center, located at 5429 32nd Ave. N.W. They can be purchased over the phone at 206.297.0403. If calling over the weekend or Thanksgiving holiday, leave a name and phone number.
"It's a Wonderful Life" opens Nov. 27 and runs until Dec. 30. North Seattle Community College is located at 9600 College Way N.
