It's in a red brick building that says "Won Hua Foods" on the north side. The entrance is on the west side of the building facing the Shell Gas Station. Look for "WATER" sign in the window. |
| Other Info | From The Stranger review: "Stokley Towles interviews people about the mundane facts of their lives, mixes all the details in a storytelling blender, and then makes shows telling you things you never even realized you should've been wondering about. "Waterlines is about the rats in your toilets (they're really there), about the invention of near beer (as a safe alternative to drinking water, since the low alcohol content supposedly killed germs), and about a local man named Mel who has walked 90 percent of Seattle's sewer pipes (the things he's found there)." The 45-minute performance is presented in an intimate studio setting. |
