Triangle Productions presents the world premiere of the ribald new musical Gracie at the Sanctuary at Sandy Plaza. Entertainer Gracie Hansen routinely greeted audiences with "Hi-ya, suckers!" The rural Washington state housewife rose to fame when she was named Queen of the 1962 Seattle World's Fair as a result of the popularity of her Paradise International Club featuring topless women in Ziegfeld Follies costumes. Such luminaries as Bob Hope and Carol Channing visited the Paradise, and it's said that Seattle's own "Red-Hot Mama" saved the fair. Later moving to Portland, Hansen held court at Gracie Hansen's Roaring '20s Room, hosting such big names as Anne Francis, Johnny Carson, The Glenn Miller Band, Les Brown and his band and Duke Ellington along with the burlesque and drag acts that drew crowds. Add a long-shot 1970s run for governor, and her story has all the makings of a great musical celebrating her bigger-than-life persona. Learn More

I laughed lots and the serious parts were good as well, good points. The actors played their parts very well.Written on Apr 02 2012

The comedy was funny, and the drama was convincing. The theater itself is comfortable and we had no difficulty hearing every word of the play. This ensemble really worked well together. No one player dominated the stage, and each character was well developed and played their role to the hilt. We really enjoyed the 90 minutes.Written on Mar 23 2012

Description
Written by Martin Casella
Size matters to Joseph Flaherty, Stephen Fitzgerald, Rick Baldwin and Kevin Shaunessy. This small group of Irish- American men (all professionally successful New Yorkers) meet every Wednesday night, in a Catholic church basement, at a self-help group for men with small penises. This allegedly Irish trait is the focus of their weekly whining and bitching as they feel this "shortcoming" has ruined their lives.
