McMANUS COMEDIES
"A wonderful cross between Mark Twain and Bill Cosby." |
"McManus in Love": Do you love the saterical writings of humorist Pat McManus? Then you'll absolutely love his stories of growing up in Idaho brought to life by actor Tim Behrens! After the success of Pat's first play, he decided to write a second one, this time primarily from unpublished material written specifically for the stage. In "McManus In Love," young Pat finally defeats his fear of the dark and realizes it was child's play compared to his fear of ...girls! The result is a hilarious romp through the maze of self-torture we all go through when we begin to date.
TICKETS: $17/$15 college students. Call Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation at 253-931-3043, Mon-Fri, 8a-5p, or Online at Brown Paper Tickets |

About the Auburn Avenue Theater
For over 30 years, the Auburn Avenue Theater has presented a diversity of live performances, including Broadway musicals, mystery theater, children's theater, and concerts. The Douglas family, producers of the fine dinner theater featured at the Auburn Avenue Theater for over 20 years, leased the venue to the City of Auburn to continue operating as a performing arts space. In 2007 The City of Auburn reopened the venue, expanding this time-honored tradition of live, quality performing arts, variety entertainment, children's shows, dance and music, right in the heart of downtown Auburn.
History in the Making
The theater building itself is over 80 years-old, however, the first structure to occupy the property over 100 years ago was a carriage house for horses. When the automobile replaced horses as the major mode of transportation, the building was entirely reconstructed as the city's bus depot. New owners converted it to a movie house in the 1940s and continued operating it as such until the mid-70s, when it underwent yet another conversion, this time as a performing arts theater venue. Since then, The Auburn Avenue Theater has presented 27 seasons of dinner theater, the last of its kind in Western Washington. For information about the Auburn Avenue Theater, please contact Jim Kleinbeck, Theater Operations Specialist, at 253-833-5678. |
