BY MISHA BERSON Seattle Times theater critic

This fall, local theaters are hoping to keep up theartistic pace while wooing in sufficient patrons byreadying both familiar and newworks.

In the popular realm of musi-cals, there will be excavations ofsuch classics as “Annie Get YourGun” (Village Theatre) and “ThePajama Game” (at Seattle MusicalTheatre), but also a newly revisedversion of the Kathie Lee Gifford-produced “Saving Aimee” (at 5thAvenue) and the premiere of thenew Bill Nabel show, “Take MeAmerica!” (at Village Theatre).

Seattle Shakespeare Companyexpands its range and seating capacity with a stag-ing of the Bard’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” atIntiman Playhouse. As Seattle Children’s Theatreintroduces its youthful audience to a musical ver-sion of the beloved storybook “Harold and the Pur-ple Crayon,” Taproot Theatre dusts off Oscar

Wilde’s “An Ideal Husband,” and Book-It debuts anadaptation of Olympia author Jim Lynch’s contem-porary novel “Border Songs.”

The financially-challenged Intiman Theatre ison hiatus for an indefinite period.But in downtown digs, ACT Theatreis set to bustle with activity — turn-ing out mainstage productions alongwith plays and cabarets in its chock-ablock Central Heating Lab series.

And for edgy, off-the-grid fare,hatched by local and internationalartists, look to On the Boards, WET(Washington Ensemble Theatre)and a quartet of solo performancesslated for the Heineken City ArtsFestival.

Watching your pennies carefully?Once again the annual Arts Crush fest will offerlow-cost and free shows. And it’s a well-known se-cret: Most theaters in town are happy to offer a dis-count, a rush ticket or some other incentive to helpyou get in your stage time.

From ‘An Ideal Husband’ to off-the-grid

E R I K S T U H A U G

CandaceVance, RyanChilders andAaron Lamb in “An Ideal Husband,”opening atTaproot Theatre Sept. 23.

“Mary Stuart,” opening Sept. 9at ACT Theatre, has just abouteverything going for it: a highlydramatic historical standoff be-tween Queen Elizabeth I and hersister Mary Queen of Scots. Twogreat local stars, Anne Allgoodand Suzanne Bouchard, who cando regal. A lauded new transla-tion of Friedrich Schiller’s play,by Peter Oswald, which was aNew York-London hit. A well-re-garded director, Victor Pappas.And (very likely) splendid periodcostumes. Oh — and day-of-show, pay-what-you-can tickets,too.

“Circle Mirror Transforma-tion,” a recent Obie Award-win-ning play by Annie Baker, gath-ers a group of strangers in adance studio to perform actingexercises in a creative dramaclass. While that may soundcloying or deadly, Baker’s serio-comedy (opening at Seattle Rep-ertory Theatre on Oct. 21 and di-rected by Andrea Allen) has beenroundly praised for its humor,humanity and its unusual meth-ods of exploring characters andrelationships in unusual but in-gratiating ways.

BY PAUL DE BARROSSeattle Times arts writer

Now that entertainers make most of their moola fromthe concert stage (not recordings), more are on the road,serving diverse audiences of all stripes. That axiom holds

true this fall. Like country mu-sic? Trace Adkins, MirandaLambert, Blake Shelton, Big &Rich and Keith Urban are all ontap.

Comedy? How about JerrySeinfeld, Marc Maron, KathyGriffin and Joan Rivers?

Crazy for the ’80s? Betterscoop up tickets quickly for Du-ran Duran, Tom Tom Club, De-vo, the B-52s and the HumanLeague.

Most of the pop-dance divas already have stopped bythis year, from Britney to Janet, but Swedish star Robynhits the Paramount in October.

Heavy metal’s making a huge comeback, with SammyHagar (whose recent autobiography became a surprisebest-seller), Def Leppard and Judas Priest swinging their

axes on arena stages.Seattleites can continue to be proud of homeboys and

-girls visiting the Emerald City after making the big time.Neo-folkies The Head and the Heart (cover of Billboardmagazine) and Fleet Foxes (second album going gang-busters), as well as Death Cab for Cutie and former Se-attleities Band of Horses all make appearances.

There’s a great roster of talent at Seattle’s coolest newvenue, too: the Neptune Theatre, the University Districtmovie house converted for concerts — Portland band Blit-

zen Trapper, indie rockers The Antlers, electronic wiz-ards Tune-Yards, Maron and British rapper TheophilusLondon.

And speaking of hip-hop, though not many groupsare coming through, two cover the waterfront. Super-stars Kanye West and Jay-Z have teamed up as TheThrone for a Dec. 16 Tacoma Dome show, and the out-sider L.A. collective that calls itself Odd Future hitsShowbox at the Market next month.

The B-52s, pictured, and the Human League willplay Chateau Ste. Michelle Sept. 10.

The Earshot Jazz Festival (Oct. 14-Nov. 6) doesn’t often shell out bigbucks for a major act, so having one of the greatest of all workingjazz groups in town is a no-miss event. Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacockand Jack DeJohnette have been making piano trio music of the high-est caliber for more than 25 years. The trio plays standards — notout of devotion to tradition and the past but with the notion that theraw materials used in improvisation, if it’s done well, should in somesense simply vanish. The trio performs Nov. 1 at Benaroya Hall.

Pilobolus returns to Seattle as partof the UWWorld DanceSeries Oct.6-8.

D A N C E

Movement in all its glorious stripes

BY MOIRA MACDONALDSeattle Times arts writer

Fall dance on Seattle-area stages offers a welcomevariety before the post-Thanksgiving “Nutcracker” del-uge. Among the season’s highlights are a poignant lastfarewell: The longtime company of modern-dance leg-end Merce Cunningham, a Centralia native who diedin 2009, makes a Seattle stop on its farewell tour be-fore the group dissolves — giving audiences one lastopportunity to view several of Cunningham’s seminalworks, performed by dancers he trained. It’ll be at the

Paramount, Oct. 27-29. Neoclassical ballet choreographer Christopher

Wheeldon gets a showcase at Pacific Northwest Ballet,where four of his works will open the company’s 2011-12 season (Sept. 23-Oct. 2, McCaw Hall).

San Francisco-based choreographer Alonzo Kingbrings his LINES Ballet to Meany Hall (Nov. 17-19),with a program that will feature his 2009 work “Sche-herazade.” Chamber Dance Company brings worksfrom the ’80s and ’90s to its annual concert Oct. 13-16at Meany, featuring local choreographer Wade Mad-

sen as well as dances from Bebe Miller, Daniel Shapiroand Joanie Smith. And local favorite Pilobolus, absentfor the past four years, brings its twisty dancers back tothe UW World Dance Series Oct. 6-8.

And for those looking for seasonally spooky works,two local companies are offering a Halloween program:“The Haunted Theatre” at Tacoma City Ballet (Oct. 22-30) and the return of “Dracula” by the International Bal-let Theatre in Bellevue (Oct. 21-30).

Moira Macdonald: 206-464-2725 [email protected]

Should you wish to experience an evening-long sampler of the vast and gloriousrange of ballet, check out Pacific Northwest Ballet’s “Love Stories” rep, comingNov. 4-13. Five romantic ballets (four of them excerpts) will be presented: thestark, passionate modernity of Jean-Christophe Maillot’s “Roméo et Juliette” balco-ny scene; the classic bravura of duets from “Swan Lake” and “The Sleeping Beau-ty”; the PNB premiere of George Balanchine’s “Divertimento” from “Le Baiser de laFée”; and Jerome Robbins’ “Afternoon of a Faun,” a delicate contemporary take onNijinsky’s legendary 1912 ballet, last seen at PNB in 1978. All that, plus a live or-chestra playing Tchaikovsky, Debussy, Stravinsky and Prokofiev. Pity it isn’t Valen-tine’s Day. At McCaw Hall; www.pnb.org or 206-441-2424.

BY MICHAEL UPCHURCHSeattle Times arts writer

One of the fall’s biggest visual-arts attractions actually openedin the summer: “The Digital Eye:Photographic Art in the Electron-ic Age” at the Henry Art Gallery.It’s on view through Sept. 25,and if you haven’t caught thisdazzling display of all the thingsthat a camera and a computercan do when they’re in cahoots,you’re in for a treat.

Other notable continuingshows at local museums includeCathy McClure’s “Midway,” anassortment of eerie metallic con-traptions at Bellevue Arts Muse-um up through Jan. 22, 2012; “ATurbulent Lens: The Photo-graphic Art of Virna Haffer” atTacoma Art Museum throughOct. 16 (see “Best Bets”); and“Beauty and Bounty: AmericanArt in the Age of Exploration” atthe Seattle Art Museum, featur-ing such can’t-go-wrong namesas Albert Bierstadt, FrederickChurch, Thomas Cole, ThomasMoran and Winslow Homer,closing Sept. 11.

It’s worth noting that both“The Digital Eye” and “Beautyand Bounty” shows were drawnlargely from local collections.

The most exciting upcomingmuseum show has to be theFrye’s “Isaac Layman — Para-dise,” opening on Nov. 19 (alsosee “Best Bets”). Other imminentmuseum offerings include “Lu-minous: The Art of Asia” at SAM,drawn from the museum’s Asiancollections, opening Oct. 13; ret-

rospectives by Carolee Schnee-mann (mixed-media works withan intense sex-politics angle tothem) and Carel Balth (morecoolheaded mixed-media visualpuzzles), both opening at theHenry (on Sept. 24 and Oct. 15,respectively); and the “NordicFashion Biennial” opening Sept.30 at the Nordic Heritage Muse-um, featuring work by IcelanderHrafnhildur Arnardottir, famousfor her collaborations with Björkand her commissions for NewYork’s Museum of Modern Art.

On the gallery front, promis-ing shows are in the works fromceramic sculptor George Rodri-guez (Oct. 15-Nov. 6 at Koboand Nov. 3-Jan. 26 at FosterWhite Gallery), photo-textblender Susan Gans (Nov. 3-Jan.26 at Shift Collaborative Studio),veteran glass artist Paul Marioni(Nov. 17-Dec. 31 at Traver Gal-lery) and Northwest sculptorPhilip McCracken (Nov. 17-Jan.1 at Sisko Gallery).

VISUAL ARTS

Works by two local photo-graphers doing wonderfullypeculiar things with the medi-um are must-sees this fall. “ATurbulent Lens: The Photo-graphic Art of Virna Haffer,”already on display, revives thereputation of an inspired ex-perimenter who flourished inSeattle and Tacoma in the1920s and ’30s. Haffer (1899-1974) was one of the revela-tions of the Henry Art Gallery’srecent “Shadows of a FleetingWorld” group show and richlydeserves this retrospective atthe Tacoma Art Museum (upthrough Oct. 16).

Still with us and making bigwaves in the realm of digital-art photography is Isaac Lay-man, still in his 30s, whosehyper-real, eye-bending takeson the most ordinary house-hold sights (a tool bench, dirtykitchen sink) couldn’t be moreluminous. In “photographic-based works” created specifi-cally for the Frye Art Muse-um’s “Isaac Layman — Para-dise,” Layman will explore“the personal and shared cul-tural desire to fabricate es-capes, destinations and monu-ments,” along with “the criti-cal role discontent plays indriving the need to createimagined perfection.” OpensNov. 19.

BY MELINDA BARGREEN Special to The Seattle Times

The big classical news, of course, is the changeover atthe Seattle Symphony Orchestra, where the baton ispassed to French-born maestro Ludovic Morlot as in-coming music director after Gerard Schwarz’s 26 yearsin that post.

The new season gets quite an overture when Morlotarrives to conduct the Opening Night Gala on Sept. 17in Benaroya Hall. The French-accented program, whichextends from chestnuts like Ravel’s “Bolero” and Gersh-win’s “An American in Paris” to the contemporary GuldaCello Concerto, features Joshua Roman (the popularformer principal cellist of the SSO) as the soloist.

After that opener, Morlot leaps right into the seasonwith several subsequent pro-grams: a Sept. 22-25 presenta-tion of Beethoven’s “Eroica”Symphony (along with someFrank Zappa), a Sept. 29/Oct.1 lineup including Stravinsky’slandmark “The Rite of Spring”and an Oct. 6/8 concert offer-ing Rachmaninoff’s “Sym-phonic Dances” and Mahler’s“Kindertotenlieder.”

And a Morlot innovation,“Sonic Evolution” on Oct. 18,features the orchestra and the

band Hey Marseilles in new symphonic works inspiredby popular Seattle musicians (including Jimi Hendrix,Quincy Jones and Nirvana).

The rest of the fall season suggests innovative twistson classic formats. Over at McCaw Hall, Seattle Operastages one of the most popular of all operas, “Carmen,”with lots of new faces in company debuts (including theyoung Anita Rachvelishvili, who sang the title role at LaScala’s 2009 opening night at age 25, and sang it at theMet earlier this year); the Oct. 15-29 production should

draw a lot of attention.The young Austrian pianist Till Fellner launches the

President’s Piano Series at Meany Theater with an Oct.18 recital featuring the usual suspects (Haydn, Schu-mann, Liszt) along with 19-year-old Kit Armstrong’swhimsically titled 2010 work, “Half of One, Six Dozenof the Other.” Hot on Fellner’s heels: a Nov. 15 Cho-pin/Liszt recital by the highly regarded Nikolai Lugan-sky.

Melinda Bargreen also reviews concerts for 98.1 Classical KINGFM. She can be reached at [email protected].

Ludovic Morlot is the incoming music director this year for theSeattle Symphony Orchestra.

She stunned the classical world with her genius-level solo Bach violin recording at the age of 16. And HilaryHahn has just kept moving upward and onward sincethen, as one of the most consistently fascinating recital-ists on today’s stages. No hysterical emoting, no shock-ing concert attire: Her focus is on the music that Hahnplays so incomparably.

Hahn returns to Benaroya Hall Oct. 17 with pianist Va-lentina Lisitsa for a recital of the “three Bs” (Bach, Bee-

thoven and Brahms), and then something completelydifferent — selections from her continuing commis-sioning project. Called “27 Encores,” the two-year proj-ect will result in a recording, and a prodigious additionto the violin world’s encore repertoire. (Among thecomposers: Krzysztof Penderecki, Jennifer Higdon, Ed-gar Meyer and Einojuhani Rautavaara.) Who knowswhich we’ll hear in Seattle?
