ARTISTS DOING: NOTHING
A MADE-IN-A-DAY FESTIVAL OF PERFORMANCE
Turn off your phone. Five of Seattle’s coolest artists. A reclaimed, abandoned Banana Republic. They start making art at 9 AM. You watch it at 8 PM. Let’s do nothing together.
Artists Doing is the launch of a performance series where artists across disciplines create immersive, high-spectacle works in site-specific spaces. What can happen when artists get paid (well!) to focus hard on something great? You’ll see both process and product. Dancers, actors, video artists, and musicians will smash into each other. You’ll let go. At the end, we’ll dance.
The festival will feature some of Seattle’s most exciting artists: Jéhan Òsanyìn, Timothy White Eagle, Alyza DelPan-Monley, Adrienne Mackey, and Ryan Purcell.
This time, the theme is Doing Nothing: unplugging from algorithms, savoring the moment, reclaiming our attention, being together in real life. See you there.
THE WEALTH WALK
A THEATRICAL WALKING TOUR
Can you even imagine a billion dollars? It’s harder than you think.
The Wealth Walk is a hyper-local theatrical walking tour of Mount Baker and the Rainier Valley. With each step, you “accumulate” wealth, creating a visceral experience of wealth inequality. The neighborhood—and its history, ecology, and economics—becomes a microcosm and metaphor for our society more broadly.
Meanwhile, you’ll become present to your surroundings instead of running on autopilot. You’ll notice how long the trees have been there, the cracks in the sidewalk, the stark differences across an invisible boundary, and the enduring legacy of redlining.
Over the course of a two-mile walk led by an actor, The Wealth Walk invites audiences to slow down and pay attention to the realities of economics, history, and ecology, and to interrogate their own relationships with wealth and property.
The Wealth Walk can be experienced as a walking tour, a self-guided experience on an app, or an accessible, non-walking virtual tour that can still be experienced in community.

THE LITTLE FOXES
BY LILLIAN HELLMAN
DIRECTED BY RYAN GUZZO PURCELL
Regina Hubbard Giddens will stop at nothing to get hers.
Set in 1900 Alabama, threatened with losing her inheritance because she’s a woman, Regina manipulates, blackmails, and steals from her family and loved ones. A gripping drama full of twists and turns, The Little Foxes pulls apart the greed at the root of American life, and how it damages the souls of all involved.
In our signature style, we’re transforming this classic into an event for the 21st century. From a sexy cocktail party to a winner-take-all cage match, we’re placing the audience at the center of the experience from thrilling start to devastating finish. A show that will make you laugh, but then make you stop, The Little Foxes stages supremacy and its corrosive consequences.

When The Williams Project stages a play, it usually means business: hotblooded, highly relevant theater that busts beyond the normal confines of a stage.
