Drama On Vashon 〰️

Dear Island Friends!

As we enter this season of gratitude, I’m reflecting on the remarkable strength of this community—its generosity, tradition, and enduring commitment to the arts.

Theatre has always been about connection: stories that remind us of our shared humanity and moments that bring people together in a way nothing else can.

This Giving Tuesday, we honor that legacy. Your support ensures that Drama Dock continues to bring exceptional productions to the stage—keeping live theatre vibrant, relevant, and deeply woven into the cultural fabric of Vashon Island.

From Plaza Suite to Sister Act, and as we look ahead to our 50th Anniversary Gala, I’m proud of the artistry, collaboration, and community that define this organization.

If you’d like to contribute this Giving Tuesday, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to Drama Dock. Your support directly fuels the productions, programs, and partnerships that keep our stage—and our community—thriving.

With gratitude,
Kelly Godell
Artistic Director, Drama Dock

PRESENTED BY VASHON HIGH SCHOOL DRAMA CLUB

Described by Edward Albee as “the greatest American play ever written,” Our Town presents the small town of Grover’s Corners in three acts: “Daily Life,” “Love and Marriage” and “Death and Eternity.” Narrated by a stage manager and performed with minimal props and sets, the play depicts the simple daily lives of the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry, and eventually–in one of the most famous scenes in American theatre–die.

Vashon High School’s production draws on a wave of new talent via the fall Theatre Arts class, along with a few returning students who made recent productions such as Ride the Cyclone and Trap such successes.

Our Town is suitable for all audiences.
