STAGE
Nightmare of a Married Man
Centerstage Theater presents Nightmare of a Married Man, which Alan Bryce wrote while he was a fixture of London's fringe theater scene.
The four-person show takes place in the dining room of a mildly upper-class suburban house somewhere in modern America as the thriller takes turns few scripts can boast. On its face, the play is about two sets of neighbors who are otherwise civil as they secretly plan each other's downfall.
The show has played to relatively full houses since it opened last month and is set to close this weekend. That means it is now or never for you to see the show that folks are talking about around the South Sound. â€" Steve Dunkelberger
[Knutzen Family Theatre, 8 p.m. Friday-Saturday, 2 p.m. Sunday, $8-$25, 3200 S.W. Dash point Road, Federal Way, 253.661.1444]
FOLK ROCK
Veda Hille
Veda Hille’s latest CD is called This Riot Life. Before it’s even one minute underway, the Vancouver, B.C., folk rocker has already dropped two monster inside references on the listener. The first song, “lucklucky,†draws its title from a fantastical little bit from Hugh Laurie playing the stupid Prince George in the third season of Rowan Atkinson’s BBC historical comedy Black Adder (if you’ve seen it you’ll get the reference immediately, and if you haven’t I could never explain it). Then the song begins and the plucky strings come in all syncopated and harkening to the opening plucks of XTC’s last multi-release, Apple Venus vol.1. That might be an academic or even pointless connection to draw if This Riot Life weren’t being released on XTC frontman Andy Partridge’s Ape Music label, but in light of that connection this musical nod sings like a salute from one clever artist to another. It’s kinda sweet. â€" Andras Jones
