Destinations: Barn Show theater event in Marysville

Blood Ensemble presents "Barn Show" which takes place in and around a barn that was built at the turn of the last century in Marysville. Johnson Family Farm, 4829 87th Ave NE , Marysville, WA 98270.

This devised, site-specific show reveals the secrets the barn has witnessed over the last hundred years. A mysterious birth in 1890 has affected the entire family. Children have dreams of flight, mothers go crazy and patriarchs fall apart. This family secret comes to a head at a barn party in 2014.

Barn Show takes place on location in and around an historic barn that was built at the turn of the last century in scenic Marysville, Washington. This site-specific show will interweave local legends, American tall tales, brand new fiction and unearthed history to trace the stories and secrets that the barn has witnessed over the last hundred years. As the summer night falls, those in attendance won't simply watch the action unfold, but will be fully immersed in the narrative and environment, making Barn Show a totally new breed of devised experiential performance.

Barn Show will be performed Fridays and Saturdays July 11th through August 2nd except for Friday, July 25th and Saturday, July 26th. Audience members may opt to be taken to the location via a private bus on Fridays from Seattle. A light meal will be provided at all performances.
