Great fan videos!

Are the scenes in the first one from Lost? I'm one of the only people on the universe that hasn't started watching that yet.

Wow.

Enpen is right, the Olympia Library is awesome. I hope there are tickets left! (and that I can find a babysitter.) The scenes are from Lost, but I'd recommend that you not start watching it. It's cheesy, crappy, TV, but addictive in a 'where did I lose 23 hours of time this month?' kind of way.

OlyBlog uprising!

Get all of the tickets before the Olympian readers know to grab'em!

Awwww, shucks.

On behalf of my awesome place of employment, thanks for the compliment! It looks like the Olympian is going to be running a feature on the show sometime this week, so watch out for that too.

Seriously?

How is the Olympia library so kick ass? I love it. I find Mirah to be amazing...

if you go tomorrow or tuesday...

there were still over 100 tickets available when I worked on Saturday. Bring your kids! This particular performance was also done last year at the Seattle International Children's Festival- it's totally appropriate for kids, although the bug animation is admittedly slightly creepy. As for Lost, maybe I'll save it for the winter, when I have more compulsion to waste 23 hours...
