PIRATE BENJAMIN BILL: THEATER THURSDAY >>>

Grease
Grease will be making a slick stop at Tacoma Musical Playhouse, so stop by this port of call to learn all about th’ high school angst straight from Rydell High of 1959. There will be th’ hormonal and rebellious Danny and the closetly trampy Sandi. The show is going to shiver your timbers, if you get me meaning.
[Tacoma Musical Playhouse, through Aug. 3, 8 p.m. Friday-Saturday, 2 p.m. Sunday, $16-$23, 7116 Sixth Ave., Tacoma, 253.565.6767]

The Rocky Horror Show
For those pirates with a bit more colorrr in their pantaloons, Harlequin Productions will be staging the last week of its super sexual run of The Rocky Horror Show. Dis live sex fest of all things buggery follows the tale of an rough and ready couple who stumble into a mansion of alien love monkeys on a darrrk and stormy night.
[State Theater, 8 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, 2 p.m. Sunday, 202 Fourth Ave. E., Olympia, 360.786.0151]

Barefoot Collective
Barefoot Studios be dead. Long live Barefoot Collective.

The effort will add more classes, more faculty and more events starting in August and running through the New Year.
