When love is like a flame, what could possibly put it out?
Middle-aged couple Ruby and Early are happy in their new marriage (for starters, the sex is amazing!). Sure, they’re struggling with unemployment and numbingly dull manual labor, but they have each other and they’ve just moved into a new apartment. Then the next-door neighbor pays them a call …
The Shattered Glass Project is proud to present the world premiere of a stirring play about the impact that poverty and jealousy can have on love. “Want” is the first in-person presentation by TSGP of a play from the developmental reading workshop series.
The Shattered Glass Project is a theatre company with the mission to amplify the voices of theatre artists who have been marginalized on the basis of their gender or sex, including but not limited to cis and trans women, non-binary folks, and trans-masculine/trans-feminine folks, by providing unique opportunities to create and grow professionally.
Location: Seattle Center Armory, lower level
Note: opening postponed from July to 8/4.
Tickets ($0-$55, sliding scale available for all) here.

The story revolves around Albert, a young composer of a new show, and the playwright, Sandor. When Albert unexpectedly arrives to see his fiancée, Ilona, he heartbreakingly overhears her sharing her affection with another man, Almady.
Sandor begins to rewrite reality to save Albert from heartbreak and thus save his new show. Through clever misdirection, Sandor tries to make it seem this incident was just dialogue in a play and begins to prep his ‘actors’ to take the stage – but will Albert fall for it?
This ‘play-within-a-play’ technique will leave you laughing out loud as the lines between reality and mere ‘acting’ blur. The clever use of this technique leads you down twists and turns that set up the hilarious finale.
Free, outdoor, non-ticketed event; show info here.
