DOUBT: With John Patrick Shanley's Doubt, newly founded Tacoma theater company Gold From Straw jumps directly into the deep end of the theatrical pool. Doubt is carefully designed to raise questions and avoid answers. The audience is permitted to come to their own conclusions, if they wish, but that is not the intent We are meant simply to know that we do not know, to wallow in our lack of certainty and to understand that how things seem does not dictate how things are. The characters, in turn, embrace, hide, foster, force and ignore the pervasive uncertainty of their lives. Doubt is also a play for actors. Read the full review here. 8 p.m., $22-$25, Mecca Building, 755 Broadway, Tacoma, 253.301.8004 - Joe Izenman
SIX HOTELS: "What's your deal?" one wounded character asks another in Israel Horovitz's Six Hotels, currently making its West Coast premiere at Harlequin Productions in Olympia. It's an apt tag line for Six Hotels, a disparate collection of one-act plays. If this anthology has any single uniting theme, it's the exposure of clandestine desires, motivations and major malfunctions. Read the full review here. 8 p.m., $22-$33, Harlequin Productions, 202 Fourth Ave. E., Olympia, 360.786.0151 - Christian Carvajal
CRAZY AND A HALF: Elizabeth Lord's most recent endeavor is playing two different therapists in D.R. Anderson's Crazy and a Half, a play comprised of six shorts that take a satirical look at patients and their relationships with therapists. From New York crazy to California crazy, the list of characters is amusing; there's crazy mafia wife with gun, crazy bunny suit girl who works for Phantazagrams, and even crazy rockstar guy prone to sleeping through his sessions. Read more on Elizabeth Lord here. 8 p.m., $12, The Midnight Sun, 113 N. Columbia St., Olympia, 360.250.2721 - Nikki Talotta
MIKO KURO'S MIDNIGHT TEA: Miko Kuro's Midnight Tea (MKMT) - a re-emergence of performance "art happenings" through a traditional Japanese tea ceremony - will take participants and voyeurs from Saturday to Sunday inside the Speakeasy Arts Cooperative in downtown Tacoma. The 12 MKMT participants, slots that were filled many moons ago, will experience swirls to their senses - smells, visuals, tastes and sounds - often while blindfolded. The voyeurs - you - will have a chance to watch MKMT founders Natasha Marin and Lord Loxley, both of Vancouver, B.C., lead the 12 through various spiritual stages through dance, art and tastes. 11:45 p.m., $12, Speakeasy arts Cooperative, 746 Broadway, Tacoma, 253.426.5704 - Ron Swarner
