Man for All Seasons returns for final weekend at Black Dog


March 20, 2012 · Updated 2:28 PM 

Theatre Black Dog of Snoqualmie will perform Robert Bolt’s “A Man for All Seasons,” Friday and Saturday, March 23 and 24, 7:30 p.m. at The Black Dog cafe, 8062 Railroad Ave S.E.

The play, directed by Susan Bradford of Issaquah, is based on the true story of Sir Thomas More’s silent stand against King Henry VIII’s desire to divorce his first wife, Catherine of Aragon, in order to marry Anne Boleyn, and the struggle for leadership of the Catholic church. More’s battle of silent disapproval ends in imprisonment, trial, betrayal and eventual death. His struggle for his own sense of self and conscience was Bolt’s hope to serve as an inspiration for today’s audiences.

Tickets are available at www.brownpapertickets.com, $12 for students and seniors, $15 for general admission. Beverages and desserts are not included with the ticket price.
